On May 24, Santiago Bernabéu Stadium (Madrid) will host the match of the 36th round of the La Liga, in which Real Madrid will compete with Rayo Vallecano. The battle will start at 22:00 CET.

Real Madrid

The club has more or less “answered the questions” of the current season. Naturally, the Champions League was the main tournament for “the Galácticos”. There, the play-off way was characterized by the struggles with the British teams. The destiny of unstable Liverpool and crisis Chelsea was known already in the first matches. The semi-final stage brought a battle with Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City again. The match at the arena of “Los Merengues” resulted in a draw. And everything ended in a disastrous 0-4 defeat in England. At the same time, Carlo Ancelotti’s wards won the UEFA Super Cup, the FIFA Club World Cup, and there happened the victory in the Cope del Rey in May. At the same time, Barcelona succeeded in the Super Cup of the country, and then, that is the most important, in the Primera. Moreover, there is a dispute for the 2nd place with Atlético, which has caught up with its neighbour. “The Mattress Makers” are ahead after a 0-1 victory in the battle against Valencia.

Rayo Vallecano

The team is based in the capital, and, of course, is in the shadow of Real Madrid and Atlético. Still, this is an original team that periodically makes a success. Nowadays, being under the rule of Andoni Iraola, it does its best. At first, the team was promoted to the Primera after the play-offs. The previous season was remembered for the achievement of the semi-finals of the Spanish Cup by the newcomer of the Primera. Speaking about the current temporada, the team from the capital is able to show stability that is pleasant for the fans. It won quite regularly even in the spring, albeit alternating the higher mentioned victories with the goalless matches. The home 1-2 failure in the battle with Espanyol, which is the outsider of the tournament, in the previous round looks like a capitulation in terms of the claims for the European competitions.

The statistics of head-to-head matches

“The Galácticos” beat the newcomer twice in the previous season. Speaking about the current one, Rayo was stronger.

Predictions
