Team News

Rayo Vallecano
Almeria
  • Pathe Ciss, on his return in the defeat to Villarreal, picked up his fifth yellow of the season and now finds himself suspended for the Almeria match.
  • Kike Perez and Aridane Hernandez will be assessed ahead of the weekend but are certainly not 100% yet.
  • Almeria, to their detriment, find themselves without three first team players through suspension - Jonathan Viera picked up two yellows against Getafe, Lucas Robertone picked up his fifth of the season and Largie Ramazani will serve the final match of his ban.
  • Gonzalo Melero returns to midfield after his ban, and should fill in for the absent Viera.
  • Luka Romero could have a starting spot on the right.

Prediction

  • Rayo Vallecano welcome the relegated Almeria to the capital on Sunday evening, looking to avoid the same fate as the visitors as they teeter only eight points clear of the drop themselves. A more confident Rayo ran out 2-0 victors in Andalusia on match day one of La Liga.
  • The hosts are unbeaten in their last five home matches, though Almeria have improved in the later stages of the season, offering more of a goal threat and mustering more energy than the first half of their truly confidence-draining season - their fans are preparing for a more positive showing in the second division next year.
  • If Rayo can hold their nerve on Sunday it will be a huge three points for them going into the last five remaining games of the season.
