Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
Rayo Vallecano play host to Almeria at their Campo de Futbol de Vallecas on day 34 of the current La Liga campaign. Los Vallecanos aim to bounce back from a heavy 3-0 loss to Villarreal and they will not have a better chance than this to return to winning ways in the national championship. Pathe Ciss is banned for the match, while fellow midfielder Diego Mendez is sidelined with injury.
The Andalusians, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 3-1 loss to Getafe, which is probably the main reason why we are going to bet on the hosts. The good news for the visiting team is that talented forward Largie Ramazani is back from suspension, but both Jonathan Viera and Lucas Robertone are banned for the match. In their last meeting in the suburbs of Madrid Rayo Vallecano defeated Almeria 2-0.
