Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
Rayo Vallecano and Real Sociedad go head to head at Campo de Futbol de Vallecas in what is expected to be a close La Liga game. Los Vallecanos aim to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Real Valladolid, and a triumph over La Real will see them stay in the Champions League race. With no fresh injury worries to report, Andoni Iraola is unlikely to make changes to the team that outplayed La Pucela at the weekend.
The Basques, on the other hand, are on a four-game winning run in the Spanish top flight. Real Sociedad are brimming with confidence ahead of the trip to Madrid, and seeing that they will go for a win as well, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. All Ander Guevara, Benat Turrientes, and Alex Sola are out of contention with injuries.
