Levante hosts Rayo Vallecano in round 36 of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Saturday, May 4th at Estadi Ciutat de València (Valencia)
Levante, although fighting for survival, still does not hesitate to play attacking football. The Frogs, which have a margin of only 2 points from the relegation zone (37 points against 35), are hardly going to betray their style, which has already become signature. Levante, along with Rayo Vallecano, leads in terms of the conceded goals (62); just look at their recent matches: Levante-Huesca (2:2), Valencia- Levante (3:1), Levante-Espanyol (2:2), Levante-Betis (4:0), Barcelona-Levante (1:0) - just incredible scores!

Two weeks ago, it might have seemed that the season was over for Rayo Vallecano; they were inevitably destined to a drop in class. But on April 28, Rayo Vallecano managed to achieve such a sensational and very necessary result - a home victory over Real Madrid with a 1:0 score. Paco Jemez cheered Rayo Vallecano up; they managed to beat Real Madrid and Valencia at home, but these impressive results might not be enough for avoiding relegation from Spanish LaLiga. It is worth saying that this coming of Paco Jemez isn’t notable for such fairy shows (there is no avalanche of goals scored in every match, and Paco's extra memorable interviews), but the team does not change the principles of the game. In addition, it is worth noting that they, like Levante, somehow conceded 62 goals to the beginning of this round. This fixture was made up of many factors and segments, but you can still navigate by it.
In this match, Rayo Vallecano will most likely be in possession of the ball very much, as Paco Jemez’s principles bode for this, while Levante loves to counterattack (7 goals after quick attacks is a very impressive result). It is worth saying that Levante tried as many as 12 different schemes in this season (but really used only five of them most often) These are (from the most frequent of these five to the less popular) 3-5-2, 4-4-2, 3-1-4-2, 3-4-1-2 and 4-3-3, but the game and the results still remained very unstable. It seems to me that Rayo Vallecano and Levante are ideally suited to each other in terms of style. They are also suitable for those who think that many goals will be scored in this match. Rayo Vallecano, in fact, has nothing to lose, and the Frogs are unlikely to change anything significantly in their game. I take the risk, so my prediction is over 3.5 goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Over 3.5 goals scored
