Match description
I back Valencia to win (1). At home Valencia averages 1.35 goals per game with an xG of 1.43, whereas Rayo on the road averages only 0.82 goals per game with xG 1.29; additionally Valencia has a higher shot conversion rate (10% vs 7% for Rayo away). Valencia fails to score at home in only 18% of matches, while Rayo are goalless in 53% of away fixtures, which gives the hosts a significant attacking edge. Defensively the hosts concede 1.24 goals per home match, while Rayo concede 1.59 away and have an away goal difference of -13, so this also favors Valencia. That said, Rayo are in good form (3 wins and 2 draws in their last 5, averaging 2.2 pts versus Valencia’s 1.4 pts), so a draw cannot be ruled out.
