Alaves vs Rayo Vallecano prediction
Since the appointment of former Watford boss Quique Sanchez Flores, Alaves have been much-improved of late. The Basque outfit have benefitted from playing teams with little to play for, as was the case in their last two games as they defeated champions Barcelona by a goal to nil and then rock-bottom and relegated Real Oviedo by the same.
They now face a Rayo Vallecano side that are preparing for the UEFA Europa Conference League final against Crystal Palace in Leipzig. However, they could also secure European qualification in Europe, too, as they sit a point behind Getafe in the table after an excellent run of form which continued with a 2-0 defeat of Villarreal last week.
Rayo will be distracted and Alaves won’t believe their luck for it to be happening again but the fact that the top seven remains on the line means it may not be a straightforward home win.
