Sevilla vs Rayo Vallecano Predictions

• Three or more goals have been scored in seven of the last 10 meetings of these two clubs
• Rayo Vallecano have scored multiple goals in two of their six away games in La Liga
• Sevilla have conceded exactly two goals in three of their six home league matches this term

Mid-table matchup could be a thriller

A thrilling duel is anticipated when Sevilla and Rayo Vallecano, two mid-table clubs separated by just one point in the La Liga standings, meet at Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan on Sunday.

Los Nervionenses want to end their streak of two consecutive league defeats to climb up the table, while los Franjirrojos will try to bounce back from their recent setback at home to Las Palmas. That ended a streak of two consecutive wins in all competitions for Inigo Perez’s side, whose results have been hard to predict on their travels this season.

Vallecano began with a wonderful 2-1 road win at Real Sociedad but stumbled to defeat against promoted Espanyol and failed to score at Getafe, Girona and Mallorca.

Goals on the cards in Seville

They do not have a particularly good record against Sevilla, but did draw 2-2 in the corresponding fixture last season. Seven of the last 10 meetings of these clubs have featured three or more goals and that could be a good option to take on Sunday.

Sevilla have shipped more goals than they would like at home, including two apiece in defeats to Girona, Villarreal and Real Sociedad. They also conceded five on the road against Barcelona, a result and performance which was much worse than the one Vallecano put in when losing 2-1 at home to the Blaugrana.

Back the goals in this clash and consider a 2-2 draw in correct score betting. The two matches between these clubs finished 2-2 and 2-1 to Sevilla last season.
