Rayo Vallecano and Elche meet in the league with neither side on a winning run, but the form they arrive in is not quite the same. Rayo have just drawn 1-1 at home, while Elche also drew 0-0 in their latest match. Rayo have scored 12 and conceded 17 in 8 matches, with the defence clearly a problem, especially early in the first half when they concede unusually often. Elche have scored 11 and conceded 17 in 9 matches as well, but their away games often end without defeat - they are unbeaten in their last three. This looks like a game where both sides take turns holding the ball and wait for the counter. If Elche score first, they will drop deep and play long balls on the break, a pattern that forces Rayo to open up more and risk being caught on the counter again.
