Looking at the European qualification at the beginning of this season, “Rayo Vallecano” lost their way and lost their chance to be in the top six. Today, the hosts have eight La Liga games without a win, and in the last round on Saturday, they suffered a defeat to “Atletico” with a score of 1:2. Good form at the beginning of the season means they are still ten points away from the relegation zone in a relatively comfortable position in the middle of the table, which prompted midfielder Oscar Valentin to say after the weekend’s defeat, “sooner or later three points will come, which will bring us complete peace of mind.” However, the “giant’s” only one victory in the last four home games, with only one success in the tournament against teams that are higher in the standings. In 28 rounds, Madrid has won ten games and eight draws, which correspond to 38 points and the ninth position in the standings. In this duel, Lejen will not be able to play due to suspension.
The loss of form by “Vallecano” allowed “Osasuna” to overtake them after their 2-1 victory over “Elche” over the weekend. For the second time in a week, they rallied and produced a result after being down 0-1 at halftime, following a 1-1 draw in extra time with “Athletic” Bilbao, which took them to the final of the Copa del Rey. Today’s visitors are focused on the game, with success in the King’s Cup not distracting the Pamplona team from La Liga, and a victory today will help the team temporarily move up to seventh place, which will qualify them for a place in the European competitions. However, there are problems for the “blue and garnet” team away from home, where they have only won one of their eight matches, and have failed to score in three of their last four duels. In 28 rounds of the current championship, “Osasuna” has ten victories and eight draws, which corresponds to 38 points and eighth position in the standings. The attack looks weak, having scored only 24 times. Today, Torro, Avila, Hernandez, Garcia, and Brasnak, who has a knee injury, will not be able to play.
