Rayo Vallecano also won two recent league games, 2-1 at home just days ago against Celta Vigo, and another 1-0 win at Valencia, only side that has not been able to score against Rayo Vallecano in the past two months. This is a cup game, they met at Sociedad at the start of the league. Rayo took a 2-0 lead in the second half, with Sociedad being wasteful in front of goal, but scoring late in added time to lose just 2-1.

        I saw Real Sociedad play decent against Villarreal at home some days ago. Kubo scored a lovely goal, but they really invited Villarreal to attack them after scoring. Rayo Vallecano will be the ones who will play on counters here unless they concede first. They are in great scoring form, and I see them being able to score here as I was not impressed with Real Sociedad defending against Villarreal who missed several key strikers, and had a poor scoring day overall.
