Rayo Vallecano

Having faced four of the top six teams from last season in La Liga, a nine-point return marks a strong start for Rayo Vallecano, who have now gone three matches unbeaten. On Wednesday evening, Inigo Perez's side encountered challenges breaking through Girona's defense, settling for a goalless draw with only two attempts, neither on target. Despite the lack of offensive threat, Perez emphasized it was a "very good moment," as they approach what seems to be a more favorable matchup against Leganes.

Leganes
SpainCurrent Form
Leganes had a promising start to the season, but it quickly took a downturn. The team is currently without a win in five matches and finds itself in the lower half of the standings. Coach Borja Jimenez is working to maintain morale, describing the 1-1 draw against Getafe last weekend as a positive result, despite the team conceding a goal just seven minutes after taking the lead. He may need to rally his squad if they cannot turn their fortunes around soon. A decisive factor may be the attack, as Leganes has failed to score in four of their seven league matches this season.
Suspensions and Injuries
Garcia (injury) and Neiou (muscle injury) will not be available for the match.
Interesting Betting Trends
In seven of Leganes’ league matches this season, only two goals have been scored in the first half.
