Prediction: 1-2
Rayo Vallecano
After suffering a massive 4-0 loss at Athletic Club, Almeria will look to return to winning ways when they take on Rayo Vallecano in the La Liga round 8. The Andalusians have been struggling to find their form ever since key attacker Umar Sadiq joined Real Sociedad, with the team sitting in the relegation zone ahead of the visit of Rayo. Since Almeria are on a four-game losing run in the national championship, home win should not be considered. There are no fresh injury worries in the home side ahead of Saturday’s clash.
Los Vallecanos, on the other hand, have established themselves as a very descent La Liga team. The capital club are sitting in top ten at the moment, and given their display in a 2-1 win over Elche, we believe that gamblers from all around the world can find value in betting on the visitors. New signing Raul de Tomas is sidelined with a groin problem, while Andres Martin should recover in time to face Almeria.
