Real Betis vs Rayo Vallecano predictions for this Liga Santander clash on Sunday at Benito Villamarin Stadium. Rayo Vallecano, the revelation of the championship so far, and Real Betis, who are always in contention for the European qualifying spots, face off, but who will manage to take the three points?. Read on for our free predictions and betting tips.
Betis have got up and running smoothly, and this is reflected in the team’s play and results. They are currently in eighth position, just one point away from one of the Europa League qualifying places.
Interestingly, of Betis’ total of 15 points, only five have been won at home.
Betis have not lost to Rayo since 2014.
Just when everyone thought that Rayo’s luck had run out, the Madrid side won again in their last game, against Elche, to move into sixth place and stay within qualification of the Europa league.
Rayo are, after Real Madrid, the top-scoring team with 15 total goals, although, when playing away, they have only managed to score three goals in five games.
Despite their solid overall standing, Rayo’s away performances need to improve. In five games they have managed one win, one draw, and three defeats.
Despite the solid performances Rayo are putting in at home, their level as an away team is that of a mid-table team, and is quite inconsistent. Against a team as strong as Betis, we don’t think Rayo will have many chances. We expect there to be plenty of chances to score, as both teams have a very attacking style of play, but overall predict Betis to come out on top.
