Rayo Vallecano vs Lech Poznań prediction, H2H and probable lineups – November 6, 2025
One of the Conference League group stage clashes is set for Thursday at the Vallecas Stadium in Madrid, where local side Rayo Vallecano will host Poland’s Lech Poznań. Here’s a bet on the outcome of this encounter with solid chances for success.
Match preview
Rayo Vallecano are making a confident return to European football, playing their first continental season in 24 years. The team has won all four of their Conference League fixtures, including qualifying rounds, and escaped defeat in Sweden thanks to a stoppage-time penalty.
Despite a recent heavy defeat to Villarreal in La Liga, Rayo have shown consistency at home, winning their last two matches at Vallecas. Given the importance of every point in the group stage, the Madrid outfit will look to capitalize on home advantage and bounce back in front of their fans after their league setback.
Lech Poznań started the group stage with a bright victory but then suffered a shock defeat to a team from Gibraltar, dropping them out of the leading pack. The Polish side have been inconsistent recently, alternating league draws with a cup win over a modest opponent.
Nevertheless, Lech remain competitive on the road, losing just once in nine away matches this season. Their form inspires cautious optimism, especially considering their experience against Spanish clubs. In the 2022/23 campaign, they put up a solid fight against Villarreal and will certainly try to grab points in Madrid, despite injury issues and a packed schedule.
Probable lineups
- Rayo Vallecano: Batalla, Balliu, Lejeune, Vertout, Pacha, Trejo, Siss, Gumbau, Pérez, García, Camello
- Lech Poznań: Mrozek, Pereira, Douglas, Milic, Gurgul, Jagiełło, Ouma, Palma, Rodriguez, Bengtsson, Ishak
