- Venue: Campo de Futbol de Vallecas (Madrid)
Although Rayo Vallecano started the 2024/25 season as one of the weakest La Liga teams, they are now looking capable of finishing in a mid-table position. Rayo Vallecano didn't lose in the last six matches, so they will welcome Celta on Friday with great confidence. In the previous game, the team from Campo de Futbol de Vallecas won 3-1 on the road in Copa del Rey against Racing Club Ferrol. The match wasn't close as the result suggested, but Rayo Vallecano eventually progressed to the next round.
Celta Vigo had a slow start to the season, but after a few nice results in November and December, Claudio Giraldez's team moved to the safe mid-table position. Celta won four of the last five matches in all competitions. In the first game in 2025, they won 3-2 on the road in the cup against Racing Santander. The guests finished the match with an xG of 1.77, while the home side had 0.57, so it is no wonder Celta progressed to the next phase.
Rayo Vallecano vs Celta Vigo pick: Both teams to score - yes
Rayo Vallecano scored at least one goal in each of the last seven matches. On the other hand, Celta Vigo scored at least one goal in eight of the previous nine games. We should see both sides to score at least once on Friday night.
