Teams to Play Out Entertaining Midweek Draw

Despite the recent slump in form, Villarreal are having a solid season in La Liga. Marcelino’s men are riding high in sixth, amassing 26 points from 16 games. They have games in hand on their rivals, and three points on Wednesday will lift them up to fifth.

Rayo Vallecano find themselves in 13th spot after 16 games played. So far, Inigo Perez’s side have won five, drawn five, and lost six. Last time out, Vallecano held Real Madrid to a 3-3 draw at Vallecas Stadium.

Villarreal will be eager to get back to winning ways after no league wins in four. After draws with Osasuna and Girona, Marcelino’s side have suffered defeats to Athletic Bilbao and Real Betis.

Vallecano head to the Castellon province undefeated in three. Before the six-goal thriller with Real Madrid, the Red Sashes picked up wins against Unionstas and Valencia. Can they keep their fine run going with a positive result at Villarreal?

Villarreal won the last one, but Real Vallecano were unbeaten in three before that. In the 2022-23 season, the Madrid outfit did the double over the Yellow Submarine.
