Team Analysis
Racing Ferrol will be looking to improve on their last outing here after the 1-0 La Liga 2 loss in their previous game against Real Zaragoza. In that match, Racing Ferrol managed 45% possession and 5 attempts at goal with 1 of them on target. At the other end, Real Zaragoza had 13 attempts on goal with 4 of them on target. Ager Aketxe (63') was the scorer for Real Zaragoza.

It has been all too rare in recent games where Racing Ferrol have kept a clean sheet. The reality is that Racing Ferrol have been scored against in 5 of their previous 6 games, shipping 12 goals during that time. Such a pattern won’t necessarily be carried forward into this game, though.

Previously, Rayo Vallecano drew 1-1 in the La Liga match with Real Betis. In that game, Rayo Vallecano managed 45% possession and 10 shots on goal with 4 on target. The scorer for Rayo Vallecano was Isi Palazón (51'). At the other end, Real Betis had 14 shots at goal with 5 on target. Isco (37') scored for Real Betis.

Rayo Vallecano have had no problems opening up opposition defences in the lead-up to this encounter, scoring 10 goals in their last 6 matches. This doesn’t mask the fact that Rayo Vallecano can also improve defensively after being scored against in 5 of those same outings.

Odds Analysis
We feel that in this game, Racing Ferrol have the capability to put a goal past this Rayo Vallecano team, but a single goal probably shouldn’t prevent them from conceding a couple at the other end. We’re going for a narrow 1-2 victory for Rayo Vallecano after 90 minutes. It should be a decent one.

Pick: Pontevedra 1-2 Mallorca
