Rayo Vallecano v Granada

Rayo Vallecano vs Granada Preview

Rayo Vallecano remain in 16th place in the La Liga standings following their recent 0-0 draw away from home at Valencia on the weekend but this point will be seen as an improvement as the hosts had previously slipped to two defeats on the trot in previous games, while Granada also still remain sitting second from bottom in the Spanish top flight table following a 4-0 mauling on home soil at the hands of runaway title winners, Real Madrid.

Rayo Vallecano hold a six-point buffer between themselves and the relegation zone and with just three games of the season remaining for the hosts, Rayo Vallecano will see this upcoming fixture against lowly Granada as the perfect opportunity to secure their domestic top flight status for another season by taking all three points here on Wednesday night.

However, this may be easier said than done as Inigo Perez's side have managed to collect just two wins from their last 16 league matches overall in La Liga which came by way of victories over Real Betis and Osasuna but the hosts have also been handed eight defeats within this period as well.

Four of Rayo Vallecano's last 10 home games have also resulted in draws and the goals market may also be worth a look for this clash as well.

Granada have conceded seven goals in their last two games in La Liga after being handed heavy defeats by the likes of Sevilla 3-0 away from home and then Sunday's 4-0 rout at home to Real Madrid which have resulted with Granada remaining sitting second from bottom in the La Liga table and now resigned to relegation down to La Liga 2 at the end of the season.

The visitors trail fourth from bottom club Celta Vigo by a 13-point margin and with just three games left of the season to play, Granada's fate has already been sealed ahead of this upcoming trip to face Rayo Vallecano at the Estadio de Vallecas on Wednesday night.

Similar to their hosts, Granada have managed to capture just two wins from their previous 16 league matches which were both achieved on home soil at their Estadio Nuevo Los Cármenes with rare victories over Alaves and Osasuna but they too have been handed a number of defeats within this period as well.

10 defeats within these last 16 games have contributed to Granada's downfall while poor results away from home have done the visitors no favours at all as Jose Ramon Sandoval's side have failed to win a single fixture on the road all season in La Liga.
