Preliminary review and match prediction for Rayo Vallecano vs Villarreal
Rayo Vallecano secured top flight status after playing out a goalless draw against Getafe in their last La Liga fixture.
Los Vallecanos have taken 8 points from a possible 15 points in their previous five fixtures. Against Villarreal, they will be playing at home and it should be noted that Rayo are playing better at Campo de Fútbol de Vallecas than away from home this season. In 17 games they have eight wins, five draws, and four defeats.

On the other hand, Villarreal’s situation are becoming increasingly worrying as they have now gone four matches in a row without a win.
Unai Emery’s side played out a draw against Sevilla (1:1) last weekend and now they are going to have to depend on other results, while they face Barcelona and Real Sociedad in the final fortnight.
The bad news for Villarreal are that they have lost four of their last five away Spanish Primera starts, all against teams ranked below them in the standings.
