Team News

Rayo Vallecano
Osasuna
  • Rayo Vallecano faces Osasuna in Vallecas with injury concerns:
  • Espino is sidelined until November with a fractured fibula, while Aridane's availability is uncertain after missing recent training sessions.
  • Cárdenas, recovering from a sprained ankle, has returned to group training but his fitness remains in question.
  • Batalla may replace Cárdenas in goal due to recent team performance. Pep Chavarría could step in for Espino, with decisions to be made between Balliu and Ratiu on the right.
  • Osasuna travels to Vallecas missing Kike Barja and Iker Muñoz long-term.
  • Coach Vicente Moreno monitors Budimir's fitness post his Croatian national team stint for thigh discomfort.

Prediction

  • Rayo is playing their second home game of the season after losing the first 2-1 to Barcelona. They haven't had an easy start, facing three away trips to Getafe, Real Sociedad, and Espanyol. They aim to not only take the lead but also maintain it this time, having faltered against Barcelona and Espanyol.
  • Osasuna has had a strong start to the season, earning 7 points from 12, all obtained at home. However, new manager Vicente Moreno has a poor away record as a LaLiga head coach, having lost their sole away game this season.
