Rayo Vallecano vs Villarreal prediction

Rayo Vallecano come into this one on the back of a 1-1 draw with Valencia in Mestalla the other day, meaning it is just two defeats in 11 matches across all competitions for the hosts as they prepare for their UEFA Europa Conference League final against Crystal Palace later this month.

Celta Vigo blew their top five chances as well as their run in the UEFA Europa League in the spring and the Galicians were mathematically confirmed as having missed out on UEFA Champions League qualification the other day as they succumbed to a 3-2 defeat at home to relegation-battling Levante.

Rayo Vallecano, electric as ever, may present some openings for a Celta side seeking to make sure of the top six with both teams scoring seeming a decent bet.

Rayo Vallecano vs Villarreal tip: Both teams to score
