Will Rayo Vallecanos deteriorating form continue?

Last weekend, los Franjirrojos were hammered 3-0 by Osasuna at home, meaning theyve now taken just one point from five games in 2022.

On New Years Day, Andoni Iraolas side were, against all odds, fourth in the table but have now slid all the way down to 11th.

Also, nine days ago, they were beaten 2-1 at Campo de Ftbol de Vallecas by Real Betis in the Copa del Rey semi-final first leg.

For context, los Vallecanos had made a remarkable start as a newly-promoted club and are competing in their first major semi-final for four decades.

That said, they need to address their losing run.

Elche meanwhile are now just three places and five points below their visitors.

Los Franjiverdes began this year in fantastic form before their five-match unbeaten run came to an end last weekend.

In that one, Franciscos side were beaten 2-0 by Sevilla with both goals at Estadio Ramn Snchez Pizjun coming just five minutes apart.

Nevertheless, Elche kick off six points clear of danger and theyll be more than happy with that.

Will there be a winner at Estadio Manuel Martnez Valero?

Top scorer Lucas Boy actually missed the defeat at Sevilla last weekend so Francisco will be desperately hoping has back and available for this one.

Guido Carrillo would therefore be back on the bench with Pere Milla Boys usual partner.

Andoni Iraola might be tempted to make changes to his XI given the poor run of form theyre on.

36 year old Radamel Falcao will continue to lead the line, looking to add to his first goals for the club.

Stole Dimitrievski missed the first four La Liga games of 2022 out injured, with Luca Zidane deputising in goal, but the North Macedonian is fit now.
