Rayo Vallecano are at home and have had a mixed run of form recently, with two wins, two draws, and a loss in their last five games. That loss was a heavy one, which might be a worry, but they have also shown they can win away from home. Real Sociedad, the away team, have been a bit more solid lately, with one win and three draws from their last five matches, and they are not easy to beat.

When these two teams have met before, the matches have often been full of goals. Their last five meetings have all ended with at least two goals, and three of them had four or more goals between them. This makes it feel like an open game where both sides could score. Given that Real Sociedad have been a little more consistent recently and Rayo Vallecano have some ups and downs, this could be a close match but Real Sociedad might just have the edge to come out on top.
