Rayo Vallecano enjoy home advantage, when visitors Real Sociedad swing by this coming Sunday for a clash in the LaLiga. The former will be looking to make that home advantage count.

Rayo Vallecano approach round 28 as number 8 in the LaLiga table with 36 points on their account so far. With 27 rounds behind them, Real Sociedad have amassed 34 points, placing them as number 11 in the standings.

With both Rayo Vallecano and Real Sociedad coming off disappointing defeats in their previous outing, we could be in for a cautious battle. Both will be eager to get back to winning ways sooner rather than later.

Rayo Vallecano go into their next LaLiga match, scoring a humble average of one per game in their last ten matches. They scored a mundane ten times, while conceding nine. That amounts to an average of 0.9 per game, where they kept their opponents from scoring two times.

The last time these two teams faced off against each other, Rayo Vallecano came away as 1-2 winners. No doubt they are planning a similar outcome this coming Sunday.
