Rayo Vallecano, Recent FormThe Rayo Vallecano squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 1-0 away defeat against Osasuna, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. They achieved 39% possession in that match and had 9 strikes at goal, with 3 hitting the target, up against Osasuna's tally of 10 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
Having scored just 2 goals in their last 6 games, it will be glaringly obvious to their manager Francisco Rodríguez where he needs to focus his attentions if they are going to get more points on the table. Hoever, he will still have one eye on his defence which has shipped 8 in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games but have only managed to keep 1 clean sheet in those games.
They've drawn their last 2 league games at Campo de Fútbol de Vallecas, but their search for a home win in the league extends even further having gone 6 consecutive games without grabbing all 3 points.
Valencia, Recent FormA 1-1 draw against Barcelona will be viewed as a positive outcome for Valencia and a valuable point into the bargain. In that game they recorded 36 % of the possession, with 11 attempts on goal, 4 on target. Their opponents found the target on 8 of their 16 shots on goal.
Rubén Baraja will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 4 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 9 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games.
Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 8 games.
Hugo Duro is the man of the moment at Valencia right now and the toast of their travelling support, having notched up 3 goals from the last 6 away outings in the league.
Last time they met both teams got on the scoresheet, but the match ended in a 1-1 draw.
Rayo will be looking to extend their current run of scoring against Los Che having scored at least 1 goal in each of their previous 5 meetings.
Valencia has had a poor run in this fixture when they visit Rayo, being unable to find a win from any of their last 6 league meetings at Campo de Fútbol de Vallecas.
There is only really one injury concern for the Rayo manager Francisco Rodríguez ahead of this clash, with Óscar Trejo (Physical discomfort) missing out, which gives Rodríguez a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
With only André Almeida (Back) and José Gayà (Muscle) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Rubén Baraja will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
