Granada vs Rayo Vallecano Predictions and Free Tips from our expert tipsters when the teams go head-to-head in the Spanish Laliga on Monday, 21 August 2023.
Granada had a strong Laliga2 season last time. Their form was so impressive and have managed to regain their Laliga spot at the end of it. Going on, they faced Atletico Madrid in their opening fixture in this season and conceded a 3-1 defeat as expected.
Meanwhile, Rayo Vallecano had a decent start to this season. The team sealed a 2-0 win over Almeria in their opening fixture. With such a start, they will be hoping to deliver a better display unlike the last season in which they finished at 11th.
Rayo Vallecano have been the dominant force in the recent history of this match-up. They are on a nine-match unbeaten streak and won seven of those.
These two have met eight times at this stadium and Rayo Vallecano was unbeaten in seven of those.
Granada had an impressive form in their pre-season friendlies. It is worth noting that they faced weaker opponents in those matches.
Meanwhile, Rayo Vallecano had a winless form in their pre-season friendlies on the road, but won their opening fixture against Almeria on the road. Do also note that they drew three of their last five road trips.
Knowing that Rayo Vallecano have the superior form in the h2h tradition, we expect a result in favor of them on Monday.
Four of the last seven home matches of Granada and five of the last six away matches of Rayo Vallecano had goals under 2.5 ft. Since their recent h2h clashes had goals under 2.5 ft, we don’t expect this match to have over 2.5 goals.
Since we expect a low-scoring match with a result in favor of Vallecano, goals are unlikely to come from both ends. Moreover, Rayo Vallecano bagged a clean sheet in three of the last five clashes at this stadium.
We are not going to back Rayo Vallecano as a clear winner here. The main reason for that is their recent away display of recording draws often.
Therefore, we like to start with draw no bet in favor of Rayo Vallecano. For the second tip we like to place under 2.5 goals option.
