Villamuriel vs Rayo Vallecano prediction, H2H & Probable Line-ups - October 29, 2024
One of the matches of the Spanish Cup’s second round will take place on Tuesday in Villamuriel de Cerrato, where local side Villamuriel will welcome Rayo Vallecano. Here’s our expert prediction from the Dailysports team.
Villamuriel
In recent seasons, Villamuriel has competed in Group A of the First Regional Division, finishing in second place last season. This earned them a playoff spot for promotion, but they fell to Mojados over two legs, losing 1-2 away and 1-3 at home.
Ultimately, due to Mojados’ difficulties, Villamuriel secured a spot in the Copa del Rey. In the tournament’s first round, they hosted Aurrera Vitoria and came away with a narrow 1-0 victory.
Rayo Vallecano
The “Bees” enter their first Copa del Rey clash fresh off a 1-0 home win against Alavés. This victory was their second in the last three La Liga rounds, helping them climb to seventh in the league standings.
Through 11 matches, Rayo Vallecano has achieved four wins against three losses, with only one defeat in their last five outings. As it stands, Iñigo Pérez’s team is just one point away from a European qualification spot.

Prediction
Bookmakers give the hosts virtually no chance, offering a minuscule 1.01 odds for a Rayo Vallecano victory. We expect the “Bees” to secure a comfortable win, but without a high goal tally, as they may opt for squad rotation and field a secondary lineup. Our pick for this match is “Total Under 6.0” with odds of 1.82.
