Granada, Recent FormGranada will not be too disheartened with their 3-1 away defeat at the hands of Atletico Madrid who sit so many places above them in the table. They came away from that fixture with 55% of the possession and clocked up 7 attempts on goal with 4 on target. By comparison, Atletico Madrid managed 14 attempts on goal, with 6 on target.
Manager Paco López will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 10 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 6 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way.
They have not lost at home for an impressive 24 games in a row.
Having scored 3 goals in his last 6 league games for Granada, Antonio Puertas will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
Rayo Vallecano, Recent FormRayo Vallecano enter this game with a comfortable 2-0 away win over Almeria last time out in the league. In that game they had 40% possession and managed 10 attempts on goal, with 4 on target, compared to Almeria who had 19 attempts and 5 on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 7 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 11, and leading to valuable points being dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games on the road.
They've had a dismal run of form on their travels recently, losing all but 1 of their last 6 away games, a solitary win providing little consolation.
Goalscorer Raúl de Tomás will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 4 goals in his last 6 league matches for Rayo Vallecano.
In the most recent meeting between these teams, they both managed to find the net, but the game finished in a 2-2 draw.
Los Franjirrojos will be looking to extend their current run of scoring against Granada having scored at least 1 goal in each of their previous 9 meetings. Nazaríes have struggled to keep Rayo at bay when these two teams have met at The Nuevo Estadio de Los Cármenes, during the last 3 times they have hosted Rayo in the league, they have conceded a total of 6 goals.
In the league, Rayo has had a solid run on the road against Granada, being unbeaten in their last 5 meetings at The Nuevo Estadio de Los Cármenes.
Óscar Trejo has scored in each of Rayo's last 0 league games against Granada.
There is only really one injury concern for the Granada manager Paco López ahead of this clash, with Carlos Neva (Achilles tendon) missing out, which gives López a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
Rayo manager Francisco Rodríguez has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
