Leganes will look to continue their climb away from the relegation zone as they host Rayo Vallecano on Friday night in La Liga. 

The hosts are showing signs of resurgence lately while their visitors have also been in good form as they push for Europe. Rayo have a habit of playing out draws on their travels and could be set to produce a similar result here. 

Leganes Form


Things are beginning to look less bleak for Leganes as they are now three points clear of the relegation zone after going unbeaten in their last five matches across all competitions. A 1-0 home victory over Atletico Madrid is among their results in that run while they held out for a 0-0 draw at Athletic Bilbao in their previous La Liga fixture. 

Although Leganes recently beat Atletico Madrid, their home form still needs some improvement as they had suffered three straight defeats prior to that win. However, over the course of the season, there have been a few key home results to give them confidence like the 3-0 victory over Celta Vigo and the 1-0 triumph over Sevilla.

Both results show some attacking quality although two of their last three goals have been scored in the second half. However, Borja Jimenez's men have failed to keep a clean sheet in three of their last five La Liga home matches, conceding 11 goals in that run. 

Rayo Vallecano Form


Sitting just one point off the top six, Rayo Vallecano will have their sights set on securing a European berth. Inigo Perez’s men have looked the part lately and are unbeaten in their last seven La Liga matches, picking up a 2-1 victory over Girona in their previous fixture.

The problem for Rayo Vallecano appears to be the run of recent draws they seem unable to shake off. They have been held four times in the last seven La Liga matches, with all three away fixtures in that run ending in stalemates.

Defending appears to be one of the problems for Rayo Vallecano as they have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last six La Liga matches. They often attempt to find the balance in attack with four of their last six La Liga goals coming in the second half. 

Head to Head


Rayo Vallecano have three wins while Leganes have been victorious just once in the last seven meetings. The other three fixtures have ended in draws including a 1-1 scoreline in the reverse fixture back in September.

Verdict

Leganes and Rayo Vallecano are battling at different ends of the table this season but showing similar form at the moment. There has been little to separate them lately and given the visitors’ recent run of draws on their travels, a stalemate could be on the cards.
 
Both teams have goals in them but seem to always leave things till after the break and Friday’s clash is likely to follow a similar trend.
