Rayo Vallecano welcomes Celta Vigo to Campo de Futbol de Vallecas for the 21.league round in La Liga. A ball possession home team can't seem to deliver results this season, and this evening the meet a team who likes to play against these type of opponents.

 

Rayo is on a 19^th place in the league, and are fighting for survival. Only got 2 points more than jumbos Levante, they've only got 16 points so far and 3-2-5 at home. Rayo has now played 10 matches in the league and the cup without a win, the last win came back in early november against Getafe (2-0). Rayo Vallecano has only won against Getafe, Granada and Espanyol, all considered as weak away teams.

 

The home team likes to have ball possession, and are quite good at this. Have generally more ballpossession than their opponents, regardless of who they play against. 11 goals on 10 home matches tells us about a team that don't create enough chances on goal, and at the same time are inefficient. Adrian Emborba (midfield) was injured against Valencia in Copa del Rey last match, besides both their reserve goalkeepers are out with injuries. Here is the complete injury list:

 

Tono (goalkeeper)

David Cobeno (goalkeeper)

Razvan Rat (defender)

Patrick Ebert (midfield)

Adrian Emborba (midfield)

 

Expected lineup Rayo Vallecano:

 

Yoel

Quini – Ze Castro – Tito – Martinez

Trashorras – Llorente

Bangoura – Jozabed – Hernandez

Guerra

 

 

The visitors are on a great 5^th place in La Liga with 34 points, are at the same time the second best away side in the league behind Atletico Madrid with a 5-2-2 stat. Their last match against exactly Altletico Madrid in Copa del Rey ended up in a scoreless draw, in a match where Celta dominated at times but couldn't find the winning goal. The task is hard in the 2.leg in Madrid.

 

This match is perfect for the visitors, they like the lie deep in their well-known 4-3-3 formation and surprise their opponents with fast counter attacks and attacks after breaks. Celta has been very good at this the entire season. It's expected that Pablo Hernandez (midfield) and Jonas Guidetti (striker) are rested from start. A lot of doubts around striker Nolito, but Celta's got a fearsome treat with their wings Aspas (9 goals) and Orellana (6 goals).

 

Andreu Fontas (defender) and Marcelo Diaz (midfield) are out injured for the visitors.

 

Expeccted lineup Celta Vigo:

 

Alvarez

Jonny – Cabral – Gamez Sola – Mallo

Radoja – Wass – Bogonda

Orellana – Beauvue – Aspas

 

 

With a home team struggling, especially at home, we think it's a worst case scenario to meet Celta Vigo today. We've been fascinated of Celta's offensive play this season, and they're undoubtedly best as outsiders in matches. At the same time we're surprised of the high odds value for Celta. The 10 last matches between these two teams shows:

5 Rayo Vallecano wins

1 draw

4 Celta Vigo wins

 

We don't think this game will end in a draw, and bet on an away win for Celta Vigo. Rayo will have a lot of ball possession, but the striker-trio don't need many chances to punish the hosts.
