Rayo Vallecano vs Betis Prediction & Betting Tips (15 December)

12th at the start of this day, Rayo Vallecano has fallen behind in the race for Europe, the fault of a lack of positive results in recent weeks. Indeed, the team located in the Madrid suburbs has not won for five days, even suffering two defeats against Villarreal 4-0 and last weekend on the turf of Espanyol Barcelona 1-0. In the meantime, Vallecano achieved three draws against Valencia at home 1-1, Oviedo 0-0 and Real Madrid at home 0-0. Thursday, the Madrilenians went to Poland to challenge the very good opposition of Jagiellonia as part of the Conference League result to come. Welcoming FC Barcelona last weekend, Bétis took lightning on the scoreboard defeat 3-5 in particular because of a disastrous first half 1-4 at the break.

Manuel Pellegrini's men reacted well in the second half but the damage had already been done. This defeat against the Blaugrana put an end to a nice unbeaten run of 8 matches in all competitions, 6v, 2n. It can be mentioned that the Verdiblancos' last away match in La Liga ended a 7-year drought against Sevilla FC on the road thanks to a nice success without conceding a goal, 0-2 victory. Last Thursday, as part of the Europa League, Bétis traveled to Dinamo Zagreb with the result to come. 

Still no Mumin (convalescent), Oscar Trejo (midfielder) nor Diego Mendez and Pedro Diaz for Inigo Perez (coach), all injured. As a bonus, Brazilian offensive player Alemao and defender Pacha have recently joined treatment. Starting midfielder Unai Lopez (2 assists in La Liga) will be suspended following his exclusion against Espanyol Barcelona. Isi Palazon (captain) returned from suspension against the Pericos. Jorge de Frutos (4 goals in La Liga), Fran Perez (1 pawn) and the full-backs Ratiu (Romanian international) and Chavarria will be present. A priori, the crucial Pathe Ciss (Senegalese international) and probable future opponent of the Blues at the world championship, will be back from suspension.  For the Chilean coach (Pellegrini), the midfielders Amrabat and Isco are still being cared for (injured) like the full-back Hector Bellerin. Recently injured, the former OM goalkeeper, Pau Lopez has resurfaced in the Chilean technician's groups but it is Valles who is holding the right end in the competition. The attackers Cucho Hernandez (6 goals, 2 assists in La Liga) and Antony (5 goals, 1 assist in La Liga) scored against Barça unlike Ezzalzouli (3 goals, 3 assists in La Liga) who was very inspired in his lane but not rewarded. Central defenders Natan and Marc Bartra (ex-Barça) were clearly out of luck against Barcelona.
