APWin Prediction

Double Chance: Crystal Palace or Draw

After a thorough assessment of the primary betting markets, APWin analysts have identified bets with strong value potential.

👉 Our prediction is: Rayo Vallecano win or draw

Even though Rayo Vallecano will be the away side in this matchup, we do not expect them to go down in defeat. We recommend betting on Rayo Vallecano to win or draw in the Double Chance market, where a win or a draw will win the bet.

Rayo Vallecano does have its share of flaws, but Crystal Palace has also looked quite vulnerable of late, and not even being at home might be enough for them to avoid dropping points to Rayo Vallecano.

👉 Our prediction is: Under 2.5 goals in the match

It's hard to see too many goals in this match between Crystal Palace and Rayo Vallecano given their lack of goalscoring ability.

That is why we project the total to go under 2.5 goals. So if 2 or fewer goals are scored, the bet wins.
