Espanyol welcome Rayo Vallecano at RCDE Stadium, Cornella de Llobregat on Sunday, Feb 7 at 3:00 PM in a LaLiga fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 2 points split them in the table.
Espanyol come into this fixture in mixed form (1W 0D 1L). Rayo Vallecano travel in mixed form (0W 1D 1L), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.
In 10 previous meetings, Espanyol lead 4–6 with 0 draws. Their last encounter ended in Espanyol won 0–1.
Verdict: The gulf in league position makes Espanyol clear favorites, but Rayo Vallecano have shown they can grind out results. Expect Espanyol to take the points, potentially without being at their best.
