Las Palmas will invite Rayo Vallecano to the Estadio de Gran Canaria in La Liga on Friday. The hosts are 18th in the standings with 32 points, three fewer than Deportivo Alaves, and need to avoid losses in the remaining four games to move out of the relegation zone. Vallecano, meanwhile, are chasing a direct spot in the UEFA Europa League group stage next season.
Los Amarillos had won their two league games last month and have suffered two defeats on the spin. They lost 3-2 at home to Valencia last week. Sandro Ramírez scored from the penalty spot, and Oli McBurnie was on the scoresheet in the 83rd minute.
The visitors went winless in their four games in April, suffering three losses. They returned to winning ways last week, recording a 1-0 home triumph over Getafe. Defender Florian Lejeune scored his first goal of the season in the seventh minute, as he helped Vallecano record their 11th win of the league campaign.

Las Palmas vs Rayo Vallecano Prediction
Los Amarillos have won just two of their last 17 games in 2025, with both wins registered last month. They have won their last two meetings against the visitors, scoring five goals while conceding just once, and will look to build on that form. They have scored in all but one of their last 12 home games and are likely to find the back of the net here.
Scott McKenna was absent against Valencia with an injury and is a doubt. Fabio Silva was back in training earlier this week and should return to the starting XI.
Los Franjirrojos had lost three of their four games in April and had conceded at least three goals in these losses. Interestingly, they are unbeaten in their last four away meetings against Las Palmas, recording two wins and keeping two clean sheets.
Pathé Ciss picked up his 10th booking of the season last week and will serve a suspension here. Abdul Mumin, Randy Nteka, and Jonathan Montiel remain sidelined with injuries.
Considering the current form of the two teams and goalscoring record, a low-scoring draw will likely ensue.
