Team News

Rayo Vallecano
Real Madrid
  • Alvaro Medran is back from suspension and should come into the centre of midfield to partner Jose Pozo ahead of anchorman Mario Suarez.
  • Raul de Tomas served a ban last time out, but will miss this weekend too due to the fear clause inserted in his Real Madrid loan deal.
  • Franco Di Santo will lead the line, with Adri Embarba expected to start on the left wing to push Alex Moreno back to left-back.
  • Zinedine Zidane has no fresh selection concerns heading into the weekend, a relief after a fierce contest at Getafe.
  • Keylor Navas is expected to hold his place in goal for Real Madrid, despite Thibaut Courtois being back available after injury.
  • Nacho and Raphael Varane should be given the nod at centre-back, though the latter could get a rest in favour of Jesus Vallejo.

Prediction

  • Rayo Vallecano have won just one of their last 13 La Liga matches, but the solitary victory did come in unexpected fashion at Vallecas against Champions League hopefuls Valencia.
  • The hosts took a battering last time out, suffering a 5-0 thrashing at the hands of Sevilla, which foreshadows the very difficult task lying ahead of them against Real Madrid.
  • Real Madrid have failed to win their last three consecutive away games in the Spanish top flight, losing to Valencia and taking draws against both Leganes and Getafe.
