Rayo Vallecano are coming off a 3-2 win against Real Madrid in La Liga. The Red Sashes are in red-hot form and go into Thursday’s home fixture with Celta Vigo on a three-game winning streak.
Rayo are eighth in the league standings and just three points off the top four. A win against Celta Vigo could send the Red Sashes into an unlikely place in the La Liga standings.
Celta Vigo are aiming to end Rayo Vallecano’s winning streak. The Sky Blues are also seeking an end to their pathetic form in La Liga. The club sacked manager Edouard Coudet and hired Carlos Carvalhal on November 2.
Carvalhal’s appointment hasn’t changed results, as Celta Vigo lost their first game under the new manager 2-1 to Osasuna. The new boss has had more time to work with Celta Vigo. It could pay off away to Rayo Vallecano on Thursday night.
Celta Vigo are 18th in the table, with just 11 points from 13 games. The Sky Blues are winless in their last six games in La Liga.
Celta’s road form is poor, as they lost each of their last five games away from the Estadio Balaidos.
Rayo Vallecano took 11 points from the last six games in La Liga. They outscored their last six opponents 11-7. The Red Sashes are brilliant at home with 13 points from 18 points on offer. Their last two home matches ended in victory.
Although Rayo Vallecano are in good form right now, they do not have a strong head-to-head record versus Celta Vigo. The teams divided the last six games with two wins, two draws, and two losses apiece. Celta Vigo are unbeaten in three straight games versus Rayo.
Manager Andoni Iraola is aiming to end Rayo’s three-match winless streak against Celta. Iraola only has one player on the sidelines with an injury. Forward Andres Martin has a shoulder problem and could miss the match.
Rayo are led in goals by the trio of Isi Palazon, Alvaro Garcia, and Florian Lejeune. Each player has three goals.
Celta manager Carvalhal could be without three players for the game. Midfielders Daniel De has a hamstring problem, and Augusto Solari is nursing an ankle sprain. Defender Hugo Mallo is also suffering from a hamstring problem.
Rayo Vallecano should end their winless streak against Celta Vigo with a victory. The win will be Rayo Vallecano’s fourth straight and could send them into the top four depending on results elsewhere. The Red Sashes should win 2-0.
