Rayo Vallecano vs Granada predictions for this LaLiga clash on Sunday at Vallecas Stadium. This is an interesting match between two teams with a very similar style of play, will the Madrid team be able to take all three points? Read on for our free predictions and betting tips.
Rayo Vallecano
The team from Madrid, one of this season’s newly-promoted teams, have not started the season as they would have hoped; they have suffered two losses and are yet to score a goal.
Rayo, who have been in a financial crisis for several years now, are unable to make any big signings in the transfer market, so their market has focused on signing from the Spanish second division, with players such as Ivan Balliu, Randy Nteka and Pathé Ciss arriving.
Of the last seven meetings between the two teams, Rayo have won on six occasions.
Granada
Granada come into this game on the back of two draws in the first two games. The Andalusian team are looking for their first win, and this weekend they have a good chance.
Granada have not beaten Rayo Vallecano since 2014.

Rayo Vallecano vs Granada Predictions
Despite Rayo playing at home, we see Granada as the better team. They are more used to playing in the top league, and they are very well-balanced, with both a solid attack and defence. Rayo are not a bad team, but they still lack the experience of being in the first division. Therefore, we see Granada as favourites to take all three points.
