Rayo Vallecano take on the visitors Espanyol at the Campo de Futbol de Vallecas in the 7th tour of the Primera Division. The match will be played in Madrid on Friday, September 28th.
Rayo Vallecano have been looking pretty unstable recently. Since the team had returned to the most prestigious Spanish football league they have been showing quite a reckless and careless playing style. For example, in their away match against Huesca Los Vallecanos won with a 1-0 score but in their home fixture against Deportivo Alaves they lost with a 1-5 score. The most disturbing thing about the team of Michel has been their offensive line. Los Franjirrojos have been able to score more than once only in one of their five league fixtures this season. That happened last tour when they drew against Real Sociedad with a 2-2 score. In their other four Primera Division games they scored only three goals overall (to Sevilla, Huesca and Deportivo Alaves). In their last three matches Rayo Vallecano drew against Real Sociedad with a 2-2 score, lost to Deportivo Alaves with a 1-5 score and beat Huesca with a 1-0 score.

The most noteworthy thing about Espanyol this season had been their great defensive line. The team has had three matches with them conceding no goals out of six played (against Valencia, Eibar and Levante). Furthermore, the Periquitos showed a good performance against Real Madrid in the fifth tour (0-1). Even though Los Blancos had a very strong offensive line the team of Rubi was able to concede only once. Also the Blanquiazules drew against Celta Vigo who had a tough offensive line to defend against with a 1-1 score in the first tour. In their last three matches Espanyol beat Eibar with a 1-0 score, lost to Real Madrid with a 0-1 score and beat Levante with a 1-0 score.
It is likely that the Periquitas will be able to keep their goal safe enough to concede one goal from Los Vallecanos maximum in the upcoming fixture at the Campo de Futbol de Vallecas on Friday.
Prediction for the match: Rayo Vallecano to score under 1.5 goals.
