Rayo Vallecano hosts Real Madrid in round 26 of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Saturday, February 26th at Campo de Futbol de Vallecas (Madrid)
Rayo Vallecano was again left without points in the last round. The team lost to Elche away (2-1), and it was its fourth defeat in a row. In total, the streak without victories amounts to six matches (five losses and one draw). Naturally, such results had a negative impact on the position of Rayo Vallecano in the standings. More recently, the Red Sashes were near the European competition zone. But now they are in 11th place with 31 points after 24 matches. In the previous three home games at home, Rayo Vallecano earned only 1 point. At the same time, the Red Sashes still have quite impressive statistics of home performances: eight victories, two draws, and two defeats with a goal difference of 20-8. Eight of 12 home games ended with “Both teams to score — no.”

Real Madrid hammered Alaves a week ago (3-0). That victory allowed the team from the capital to keep a confident lead in the standings. I remind you that the Whites have 57 points in their assets. The gap from second place is six points. In general, Real Madrid looks very good in the current season. To make certain of this, just look at the Whites’ results: 17 victories, six draws, and two defeats with a goal difference of 51-20. Real Madrid is the most productive club in LaLiga, and only Sevilla conceded less (17 goals). And the Galacticos are currently the best team in Spain in terms of away results. In 12 games, they gained eight wins and two draws and suffered only two losses with a goal difference of 23-12.
Rayo Vallecano lost 2-1 at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu in the first part of the current season. The Red Sashes are in poor shape right now. Nevertheless, they have performed very well at their home stadium throughout the season. I think now they will remember that they are a home team. Plus, they will be extremely motivated. But as I have already noted, Real Madrid is the best club in Spain in terms of away results. In addition, the Whites are fighting for the champion’s title, and they have no room for error. Let’s bet on the victory of the visitors.
Prediction for the match: Real Madrid to win
