Elche take on Rayo Vallecano in what looks set to be a closely contested La Liga clash. Therefore, we predict that the two sides will play out a 1-1 draw at Estadio Manuel Martínez Valero. Los Vallecanos have been inconsistent this season, with just 30% wins overall and 1.2 points per game. At home, Elche have been slightly better, averaging 1.5 points per game, scoring 1.5 goals while conceding only 0.75. Their recent form shows some promise with two wins in the last five, and they’ve kept clean sheets in 50% of home matches.
The capital club, meanwhile, have been similarly inconsistent, winning 30% of their games and averaging 1.3 points per match. Their away form mirrors this, with 1.17 points per game and an average of 2.33 goals scored per match. Defender Andrei Ratiu is banned for the visitors, while Randy Nteka is away at the Africa Cup of Nations, though he is not a key starter. Unai Lopez returns from suspension to boost midfield stability for Rayo.
Considering aforementioned statistical data, our prediction leans toward a Draw. Additionally, BTTS and Over 1.5 goals bets seem tempting as 16 of the last 17 H2H matches ended with more than 1.5 goals.
This Primera Division match will be played on Sunday 21 December 2025 at 17:30.
