Real Betis, Recent FormThe 4-2 away defeat to Athletic Bilbao will not have sat easily with the Real Betis squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. In that game they had 53% possession and managed 7 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Athletic Bilbao who had 14 attempts and 6 on target.
Manager Manuel Pellegrini will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 7 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 8 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have been unable to score at home in 3 of their last 6 games, and they have also failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
They've drawn their last 2 league games at The Estadio Benito Villamarín, but their search for a home win in the league extends even further having gone 3 consecutive games without grabbing all 3 points.
Rayo Vallecano, Recent FormOn the back of a tough 7-0 home defeat by Atletico Madrid, Rayo Vallecano manager Francisco Rodríguez will have some work to do to get his team in a confident mindset. Their share of possession in that meeting was 56%, while racking up 12 shots along the way, 3 of which were on target. Atletico Madrid had 17 shots on goal with 10 on target.
Having lost 13 goals in their past 6 matches, Rodríguez will surely be casting a critical eye over his defensive line, even though his team managed to pick up some points along the way due to the 7 goals they scored. When playing away from home, they have scored in 4 of their last 6 games and are on a run of 2 consecutive clean sheets.
They're experiencing a relativley poor spell of form on the road, having lost 4 of their last 6 away games despite notching up a couple of wins.
Goalscorer Raúl de Tomás will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Rayo Vallecano.
Rayo Vallecano suffered the disappointment of a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Real Betis the last time they met in the league.
The Los Franjirrojos defence has struggled against Real Betis in past meetings, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 10 games.
In the league, Real Betis has a good track record when they host Rayo, getting the better of them in their last 3 home games.
Real Betis manager Manuel Pellegrini has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Claudio Bravo (Ankle), William Carvalho (Calf), Nabil Fekir (Cruciate ligament) and Luiz Henrique (Muscle) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With only Andrés Martín (Physical discomfort) and José Pozo (Physical discomfort) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Francisco Rodríguez will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
