MADRID, 10 Dic. (EUROPA PRESS) –
RC Celta seeks this Monday in Vallecas (9:00 p.m.), in the last match of the sixteenth day of LaLiga EA Sports, a victory that will allow it to break its disastrous streak of results in the domestic competition and get closer to the permanence positions, all against a Rayo that also wants to win again after five dates without doing so.
Ten points separate the Madrid team (19), nine from the European zone, from the Galicians (9), who have the remaining positions three points away. However, both teams arrive at the event with the need to win after weeks of doubts and after settling their cup commitments.
The Rayista team, which advanced in the 'KO' tournament during the week by beating Yeclano (0-2), has not managed to win in LaLiga since October 22, when it did so against Las Palmas (0-1); Since then, they have had three draws – two of them against Real Madrid (0-0) and FC Barcelona (1-1) – and two defeats, the last of them last week against Athletic Club (4-0) .
Rafa Benítez's men, for their part, have only managed to win once so far in the championship, on September 1 against Almería, and since then they have had a series of eleven games without achieving victory – six defeats and five draws. . In the Cup, they suffered to eliminate Sestao River (1-2).
Francisco will only have the absence of 'Pacha' Espino, due to an accumulation of cards, while the Galicians will not have the long-term injured Joseph Aidoo or Carlos Domínguez.
