Rayo Vallecano vs Real Madrid form
Last season's eighth-place finish was enough to secure Rayo Vallecano a ticket to the Conference League. After easily qualifying for the play-offs, the De Vallecas outfit are off to a flying start in the qualification campaign.
Last midweek, Rayo Vallecano made a brilliant comeback to defeat Lech Poznan (Poland) 3-2 despite being 2 goals down at halftime. Thanks to that, Los Franjirrojos have pocketed 7 points after 3 matches, firmly in 6th place and full of hope to win a ticket straight to the round of 16.
But in La Liga, Rayo Vallecano did not have a really good start. Starting the season with a 3-1 away win against Girona, but in the next 6 rounds, the team in the suburbs of Madrid only earned 2 points.
It was not until October that the atmosphere filled with joy returned to the De Vallecas stadium when the home team won all 9 points after 3 matches. Entering November, the team under the direction of coach Inigo Perez was quickly given a cold shower.
Traveling to Villarreal's De la Ceramica, Rayo Vallecano's goal of earning points soon collapsed and Alemao and his teammates had to accept a 0-4 defeat. Currently, with 14 points in hand, Rayo Vallecano is ranked 10th, only 1 point behind 8th place, and at the same time creating a 5-point gap to the red light group.
Overall, everything is still under the control of coach Inigo Perez and his team and they will enter the encounter with Real Madrid with a completely optimistic mood. It is important to know that in all 3 recent times hosting the Madrid giants, the home team has been undefeated, earning 1 win and 2 draws.
On the opposite side of the field, Real Madrid did not have good mental preparation. The team under coach Xabi Alonso had just returned to the land of bullfighting after a 0-1 defeat in their visit to Liverpool's holy Anfield.

But thanks to the previous 3-match winning streak, Los Blancos still maintained their presence in the top 8 (winning a ticket straight to the round of 16). In La Liga, the Royal team is also creating a gap of up to 5 points compared to their arch-rival Barcelona.
In the past decade, Real Madrid has faced Rayo Vallecano 11 times. Despite having a better head-to-head record of 6 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses, the White Vultures have not won by more than 1 goal. The statistics are enough to show the difficult situation Real is in every time they face their neighboring opponent.
