Team News

Rayo Vallecano
Leganes
  • Rayo could be without Pep Chavarría, who injured his adductor during the match against Girona. Additionally, Diego Méndez and Pacha Espino are confirmed to be unavailable.
  • Regarding the starting eleven, it seems likely that Íñigo Pérez will have Ratiu and Balliu on the wings due to the injuries to Chavarría and Espino.
  • In the attacking midfield area, the return of Álvaro García to the starting XI is anticipated.
  • Leganes will once again be without Yvan Neyou for another match and have a serious doubt over Naïm García. However, they are hopeful of Javi Hernández's recovery, who missed two matches due to illness.
  • Regarding the starting eleven, it appears that Borja Jiménez aims to field his strongest team, with Javi Hernández returning on the wing and a decision to be made between Munir or Franquesa up front.

Prediction

  • Rayo Vallecano have been more consistent in performances and results this season as compared to Leganés who have won just 1 and a draw against Getafe puting an end to a 3 game losing streak.
  • While it is true that Rayo Vallecano played a midweek game and Leganes did not, the difference in squad depth is also significant as Íñigo Pérez has a wide range of options to rotate and select from, allowing him to rest key players by shuffling the lineup effectively.
