Rayo Vallecano have another great season. They are only three points behind the Europa Conference League place. Still, Rayo Vallecano have only three draws and two losses in the last five matches. In the previous game, they lost 3-0 on the road against Celta Vigo. Guests were solid in the first half, but in the second half, Andoni Iraola's team fell apart, so the home side secured an easy win. 

Rayo Vallecano have problems with scoring goals. They scored only six goals in the last nine matches. Also, eight of those nine games went under 2.5 goals. 

Girona are among the teams in danger of relegation. They are 12th on the table but with only four points more than 18th-placed Getafe. Girona are struggling too. They lost the last two matches. On Monday, they lost 1-0 at home against Atletico Madrid. The home side focused on defending, but Alvaro Morata scored late in the second half, so Girona suffered another defeat. 

Girona should be solid in defense. They allowed 12 goals in the last eight matches. Also, five of those eight games went under 2.5 goals. 

Rayo Vallecano vs Girona pick: Under 2.5 goals

Rayo Vallecano are very bad in offense lately, so they should have another troubling game against another solid defending team like Girona. Under 2.5 goals should be the best bet for this tie.
