Player to Watch: Iago Aspas
Since we can see Celta Vigo notching a win in this duel, our player to watch comes from this team and it's the most experienced of them all – Iago Aspas.
Despite being 35 right now, the Spanish striker is having a very good season and he is the teams leading scorer with nine goals in La Liga, to which he also added three assists. So, Rayo Vallecano has to be wary of him in their upcoming duel.
