Rayo wants to forget the Cup in Cádiz and Mallorca, flee from relegation in Balaídos

MADRID, 5 Mar. (EUROPA PRESS) –

Rayo Vallecano hopes to leave behind the elimination of the Copa del Rey in their visit to Nuevo Mirandilla this Sunday (2:00 p.m.), in a twenty-seventh day of LaLiga Santander in which RCD Mallorca seeks a victory against RC Celta (6:30 p.m.). that allows him to mark distance with the relegation positions.

On Thursday, Andoni Iraola’s men were about to force extra time in the semi-final second leg against Real Betis with a goal from Baby in the 80th minute, but Borja Iglesias, already in added time, was in charge of leveling the match and making Vallecas’ 1-2 was good to seal the ticket for the Verdiblancos for the cup final.

Now, the Vallecano team will return to the reality of the domestic competition, where they have suffered five consecutive defeats and seven games without winning that have made them fall from the top of the table to twelfth place with 31 points, 13 behind Europe and ten on a descent that marks precisely his rival on Sunday.

The cadistas (21), second to last, have drawn in their last three games, but even so they have not managed to get close to a safety zone that they have four units behind. His pending subject, the goal; they have only scored two in the last four days.

Neither Alejandro Catena, due to suspension, nor Martín Merquelanz, due to injury, will be available for the Rayista team, which is keeping an eye on the Radamel Falcao and Unai López headgear. Florín And one and Santiago Arzamendia will be absent in the yellow team, which also has the doubt of Tomás Alarcón.

In Balaídos, Celta seeks to end a streak of three dates without winning to climb the table, where they are tenth with 32 points, 12 behind the continental positions. After drawing with Cádiz (0-0) and Levante (1-1), the Galician team succumbed at the home of the defending champion, Atlético de Madrid (2-0).

With six points less is Mallorca (26), who have lost in their last games against Betis (2-1), Valencia (0-1) and Real Sociedad (0-2) and who see the shadow of relegation only five units below him, so he desperately needs a victory that scares away all the ghosts.

The light blue team arrives with all its players available for the match, while the Balearic Islands will once again regret the absence of Iñigo Ruiz de Galarreta and Dominik Greif.
