Rayo Vallecano vs Real Oviedo Match Preview

Rayo Vallecano has leveled points with Gijon on the table and is still in contention for promotion this season, given the latter commits a mistake. With just three games remaining this term, the clash with Real Oviedo on Thursday will be crucial for the home team in the league.

The host has only one win in their last five clashes, but the victory broke their four-game winless run in the campaign. Their previous encounter was on the road and they defeated Fuenlabrada with a 1-2 scoreline in the league.

Unbeaten in their last three matches might give improved morale for the visitor. The away team has three wins in their last five clashes in La Liga2. With their double win in the schedule, they will visit on the back of a 1-0 win at home against the likes of Malaga.

Rayo Vallecano vs Real Oviedo Prediction

Rayo Vallecano looks like the favorites with their 11-point lead over the visitor on the table and the ground advantage in the fixture. However, the host has only one win in their last six matches in the campaign and the win was against a team sitting below the tenth position as it stands.

On the contrary, a three-game unbeaten run and a double win in their schedule improve the morale of the away team in the middle. Thus, the double chance favoring Real Oviedo will probably be an ideal choice for the encounter. Besides, we can expect a couple of goals in the game, and hence, the tip for over 1.5 goals will probably be the best bet for the punters.
