The 2021-22 edition of La Liga returns to the fold with another set of matches this weekend as Rayo Vallecano lock horns with Granada in an important clash at the Estadio los Carmenes on Sunday.
Granada vs Rayo Vallecano Preview
Rayo Vallecano are currently in 13th place in the La Liga standings and have endured a shocking slump after a brilliant start to their campaign. The Madrid-based outfit suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat at the hands of Atletico Madrid last month and will need to bounce back in this fixture.
Granada, on the other hand, are in 16th place in the league table at the moment and have been inconsistent this season. The hosts edged Deportivo Alaves to a 3-2 victory in their previous league game and will look to achieve a similar result this weekend.
