Rayo Vallecano vs Athletic Bilbao Prediction & Betting Tips - LaLiga
by Daniel Ngulu in LaLiga Predictions
Rayo Vallecano’s bid to return to winning ways faces a tough challenge ahead with Athletic Bilbao coming over on Sunday. While Bilbao are looking to rise into the top four, Rayo are six points above the red zone. Let’s have a look at the preview and a prediction for this match.
The hosts are coming from back-to-back defeats and will be looking to bounce back. In their most recent match, they fell 1-0 to Sevilla, failing to improve on their 3-1 home loss against Las Palmas.
These defeats have Rayo on just one win in the last four league matches. While they seek a return to winning ways, Athletic Bilbao aren’t their best customers.
With Villareal facing a tricky game against Girona, Athletic Bilbao have reason to feel this weekend they can break into the top four. They will be bullish, coming from a 3-0 win at home to Elfsborg in the Europa League.
That victory marked their third win in four matches and stretched their unbeaten run to eight matches. The visitors are also doing well defensively, having managed four clean sheets in their last seven matches.
Two of them were registered in their last two matches. To cap their confidence ahead of this game, Bilbao are unbeaten in the last five meetings with Rayo.

Our Rayo Vallecano vs Athletic Bilbao Prediction
In their last three trips to Estadio de Vallecas, Athletic Bilbao are unbeaten, winning twice. In total, they are undefeated in their last five meetings with Rayo, only drawing once. As they head to Madrid, this is a fixture Bilbao will be expected to prevail in.
They go into it on a much better run as well - unbeaten in eight. While Rayo will hope Bilbao’s shaky away run comes to play, their own recent form doesn’t make for pleasant reading. Our prediction for Rayo Vallecano v Athletic Bilbao is for Athletic Bilbao to win.
