Rayo Vallecano will take on Celta de Vigo this Saturday, 31 October, at 15:15 (Canary Islands time; 16:15 on the mainland), in a match at Vallecas Stadium as part of the 11th round of LaLiga EA Sports. The home side is looking to bounce back after a disappointing recent performance, while the visitors arrive with a solid defence and a series of draws.
The Madrid-based team has accumulated 9 points from ten matches, with 2 wins, 3 draws, and 5 losses. They are coming off a 0-3 defeat at home against Elche on 24 October, where the goals were scored by Federico Redondo and Fernando Niño, both from penalties, and Germán Valera.
Celta de Vigo, currently sitting ninth in the league, has garnered 12 points from 2 wins, 6 draws, and 2 losses. They have scored 10 goals and conceded 7. In their last outing, they played to a goalless draw against Real Betis at Balaídos on 25 October.
With three more points than Rayo and one of the league's strongest defences, Celta aims to secure an away victory, while Rayo seeks to regain their form at home. The last five LaLiga encounters between the two teams have been closely contested, with Rayo winning twice, Celta once, and two matches ending in draws. The most recent match took place on 18 January 2026 at Balaídos, where Celta emerged victorious with a 3-0 scoreline.
