MATCH PREVIEW
It’s a battle of the basement as La Liga’s (LL) worst home side, Rayo Vallecano (19th), host struggling Athletic Bilbao (17th) – a team without a competitive away win since April. |
Vallecano have found it hard adjusting to top-flight life, and are one of five LL teams yet to register a home victory (D1, L3). Yet they have still managed to score in each of their four home games, albeit leaking 13 goals in the process – more than any other LL side on their own turf. |
This game could be a good chance to obtain that elusive first three home points though, as the last time Bilbao kept an away league clean sheet was back in December 2017. |
The visitors are, however, fast becoming LL’s draw specialists, drawing five of their last eight top-flight games. That includes each of their three away fixtures, all of which were score draws. |
Travelling fans can usually expect a goal. The Basque outfit have scored in each of their last seven LL away fixtures, netting exactly one in five of those. |
If recent history is to be repeated, expect goals. Over 2.5 have been scored in the last five H2H encounters held here, with Bilbao winning three of those (W3, D1, L1). |
Players to watch: With three goals in his last five games, Raul De Tomas is Vallecano’s top scorer. |
Iñaki Williams scored Bilbao’s equaliser against Eibar on Sunday – he also scored the winner in his team’s last meeting with Vallecano. |
Stat attack: There have been a total of 31 yellow cards (an average of 6.2 per match) and three reds shown in Vallecano’s last five LL matches. |
Bilbao have been winning at half-time and drawing at full-time in three of their league games – the highest ratio of any LL team. |
Both teams have scored in seven of Bilbao’s eight top-flight games. |
