The Giant Killer will take on the Frogs on matchday 28 of LaLiga

Rayo Vallecano will host Levante at Estadio de Vallecas in LaLiga 2025-26 matchday 28. Last time these two sides faced in the league, Rayo Vallecano trashed Levante 3-0 at their home. The head-to-head record between these two teams are very tight, but this time surely there is a difference in the quality.

Rayo Vallecano so far has played 27 matches in the league, in which they won seven, drew 10 and lost 10 matches. With 31 points on the board, they sit at 13th place in the table. They are performing decently in the UEFA Europa Conference League. This season hasn’t been good for them, but still, they will hope to finish inside the top 10 of the points table.

On the other hand, Levante returned to the top division after some time, but it looks like they will be back in the second division very soon, as currently they sit in the relegation zone. Till now, they have played 27 matches, in which they have won five, drawn seven and lost 15 matches, with 22 points on the board; they sit at 19th place. Now, from every game, they must aim to get at least one point so that they can stay in the top division.

Players to Watch

Álvaro García (Rayo Vallecano)

The Spanish forward has played his entire career in Spain, and he has a lot of experience playing at different divisions in the Spanish football system. He has been part of Rayo Vallecano for the last seven years and is a legend of the club.

Despite being short in stature, he is someone who can have a major impact on the pitch. Garcia is a versatile player who can play as an attacking midfielder as well as a left winger.

Etta Eyong (Levante)

The Cameroonian forward combines his physical power, directness and speed to attack the opponent. What makes Eyong special isn’t simply his pace or strength; it’s how intelligently he applies them.

His movement between the lines, pressing triggers and capacity to stretch defences make him a lethal attacking threat. This season, he hasn’t played a lot of games; so far, he has only played three matches in which he scored once and provided two assists.

Match Prediction

Rayo Vallecano are in decent form, and they are undefeated for the last five games. On the other hand, after consecutive defeats, Levante have done well in the last two games, but they lost their home fixture earlier to Vallecano.
