👉 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 Deportivo Alavés 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: Over 2.5 goals in the match

Deportivo Alavés and Rayo Vallecano are two attacking sides who have what it takes to make this an entertaining and eventful match.

That's why we highly recommend taking the bet of over 2.5 goals. The bet wins if there are 3 or more goals scored in the match, and if there are 2 goals or fewer, the bet loses.
