Monday night football in Spain, as Rayo Vallecano hosts Cordoba in the last match of the La Liga round 18.
Rayo has problems at home this season with one of the worst statlines in La Liga: 2 wins, 1 draw and 5 losses. But overall Rayo played some good football so far and mainly thanks to their away performances, they are on the 11th place with a chance to climb to the 9th place. Hosts are coming after a 2-1 win with Getafe and will hope to improve at home when they meet a poor Cordoba team … a great chance to get some points at home but also to increase the distance ahead of a relegation rival. Rayo has a full squad available for today except for Cobeno.

Cordoba is third to last in the standings and has struggled to win games on the road … only 1 of the last 12. They can play good defensive football and make it hard for opponents to win games vs. them, but they have no firepower whatsoever. Cordoba is coming after a great win vs. Granada, 2-0. Visitors will not be able to count on Bouzoun today, but otherwise they have a full squad available.
Rayo has a great opportunity to improve on their home performances and I think they have what it takes to get an important win vs. Cordoba … three points would be huge for Rayo, putting them in a marvelous position to avoid relegation and I don’t think they will let the chance slip. Cordoba poses little danger to win or even score on the road, so Rayo should be able to hold the ball and find the winning goal(s) over the 90 minutes of football … my tip will be Rayo Vallecano to win. The game will probably be pretty close in terms of final score, but Rayo will be the one running the show … I am betting on the better team, plain and simple. Correct score prediction: Rayo Vallecano – Cordoba 1-0.
