Prediction

  • Athletic Club made it three wins from their last four games after they thrashed Elche 4-1. Oihan Sancet scored from the penalty spot before goals from Nico Williams and Alex Berenguer finished off the scoring in the first half. They are currently sixth in the table.
  • Rayo Vallecano picked up their second win of the season with a 2-1 victory over Valencia. Isi Palazon scored early on before an own goal from the opposition gave them an unassailable lead. It was a tense affair as Vallecano committed 22 fouls, picking up five yellow cards in the process.
  • Nico Serrano, who is currently on loan at Mirandes from Athletic Club, scored the only goal in a 1-0 win for his side when the teams last met in January.
