Rayo Vallecano vs Barcelona Prediction: 27/8/2024

Rayo Vallecano enter this match in a rough patch, having lost 11 of their last 15 LaLiga games. On the other hand, while Barcelona may not be at their peak this season, they have still managed to secure eight victories in their last 11 league outings.

Barcelona has become synonymous with low-scoring away games, with 16 of their last 18 LaLiga trips featuring three goals or fewer, including the last 11 consecutively. Rayo Vallecano’s home matches have followed a similar pattern, with 18 of their last 20 league games also ending with under 3.5 goals.

In 14 of Rayo Vallecano’s last 18 LaLiga matches, at least one team has kept a clean sheet. This trend is mirrored by Barcelona, where 16 of their last 19 away games have also seen one side fail to score. Given these statistics, it’s unlikely both teams will find the back of the net in this clash.

 

Prediction

Barcelona have been on a remarkable run in their recent away fixtures, winning eight consecutive LaLiga games. In contrast, Rayo Vallecano has struggled at home, losing their last four matches and conceding 12 goals in the process.

Prediction: Rayo Vallecano 0 : 2 Barcelona
