Vallecas will be ready for another interesting La Liga battle as Rayo Vallecano aim to recover from a 4-1 defeat against Real Madrid. Despite the scoreline, Rayo registered 18 attempts and 1.22 xG, showing they were not completely outplayed. Their home numbers are encouraging too, with a 50% win rate and 2.00 goals scored per game. Fran Perez and Jorge de Frutos are both back from suspension, strengthening their attacking options.
Espanyol travel to Madrid with renewed confidence after beating Osasuna 2-0, with Roberto Fernandez Jaen the standout performer after scoring twice.
