Rayo Vallecano - Cádiz predictions

By pricing a home win at around 1.86, the bookies made it clear that Rayo Vallecano are the favourites. Overall, though, the difference between the teams is not big, and the match can end either way.

Cádiz stand next to no chance at beating the hosts in this match. For instance, most bookies online offer odds of 5.35 for an away win, indicating a very small chance of success.

A defeat as heavy as their Girona beating in the previous round of La Liga is not something Rayo Vallecano will recover from easily. However, that’s exactly what they hope to achieve this Saturday.

The away team are coming on the back of a surprise draw in their recent home game. Their opponents Celta de Vigo took an early lead, and most La Liga betting predictions assumed they would turn it into an away win. However, Cádiz equalised before the end and snatched an unexpected point.

Rayo Vallecano’s recent performances have raised some questions about their defence. They conceded 6 goals throughout their latest three La Liga matches and betting on Over 4.5 seems like a reasonable option.

Cádiz may need to work on their defence if they want to get anywhere. In the 3 most recent matches they played, they conceded more than 5 times in total, which is not a good record to have.

The clock is ticking for Cádiz as we move into round 27. With 0 points needed to be safe from relegation, they’ll have to outdo themselves in this coming matchup if they want to return to the La Liga next season.

These two teams already clashed multiple times this season, and neither managed to come out on top in any of those games. Most bookmakers see Rayo Vallecano as the favourites, though, so they’ll want to use the extra drive of being the hosts to finally earn a conclusive result.

Fortunately, both teams will have a complete lineup this Saturday, with no players out due to injury or suspension.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet combines the best of both worlds: it’s a fairly safe bet with a high probability of success, but it also offers decent betting value. You can place it on the 888Sport priced at 1.53 odds.
