Our top Girona vs Rayo Vallecano betting tips and picks
If you are looking for the best free Copa del Rey betting tips, we can help you out. Here are our predictions for Girona vs Rayo Vallecano:
Rayo Vallecano to Win
While Girona is doing well in La Liga 2 and they are on good path to at least reach the playoffs, Rayo Vallecano has been amazing in La Liga where they are 7th at the moment.
So, obviously Rayo Vallecano is the better team, but Girona already eliminated Osasuna from the cup. Still, we expect Rayo Vallecano to come out in full force and to fight hard to get to the quarterfinals. So, our prediction is for Rayo Vallecano to win this game.
Under 2.5 Total Goals
Three of the last five head-to-head duels between Rayo Vallecano and Girona have gone under 2.5 total goals and we expect the same to happen when they meet on Saturday.
That being said, Girona averaged 2.52 goals per game this season in the league, while Rayo Vallecano averaged 2.40 goals per game. However, we saw just one goal each in matches played by these teams in the last round of Copa del Rey.

On top of this, Girona is one step away from getting to the quarter-finals of the Spanish Cup, after eliminating Osasuna in the last round.

Juan Carlos – Bueno, Juanpe, Espinosa, Martinez, Farres – Calavera, Kebe – Stuani, Bustos, Moreno

On top of that, Rayo Vallecano has a good opportunity to reach quarter-finals of Copa del Rey, which would be a very nice success for them. In the last six games in the league, Rayo has two wins, two draws, and two losses.
