THE PREDICTION

Rayo Vallecano come into this on the back of a 4-3 penalty shootout victory against lower league Guijelo in the Copa del Rey during the midweek. The hosts have been excellent thus far in the league and they currently sit inside La Liga’s top six ahead of this round of fixtures with the best home record in the division. They come up against an Espanyol side that they gained promotion alongside and that have also done well this season. The visitors have been very stubborn and the Catalans sit firmly in the middle-of-the-table. This should be a low-scoring encounter with a double chance bet in favour of Rayo looking solid.
