Both looking to bounce back from defeats on the opening day, Real Sociedad and Rayo Vallecano will do battle in La Liga action on Sunday.
The two sides faced tough tests in the first round of fixtures, as the hosts were beaten 4-2 by Barcelona while the visitors made the trip to Sevilla and fell to a 3-0 defeat.
We say: Real Sociedad 2-1 Rayo Vallecano
Real Sociedad looked poor at the back in their opening defeat to Barcelona, but they should have enough going forward to overcome the newly-promoted outfit on Sunday.
The visitors were comfortably defeated in their first game back in the top flight, and they face another tough test and could again be seen off by another side pushing for the top six.

Atletico Madrid will be looking to make it back-to-back wins at the start of their 2021-22 La Liga season when they welcome Elche to Wanda Metropolitano on Sunday evening.
Diego Simeone's side opened their season with a 2-1 victory at Celta Vigo last weekend, while Elche played out a goalless draw with Athletic Bilbao on Monday night.
We say: Atletico Madrid 2-0 Elche
Elche's supporters will have been encouraged by their team's performance against Athletic, but they now face arguably the toughest match on their La Liga calendar. Atletico are so strong at Wanda Metropolitano, and we are expecting a routine two-goal victory for the champions this weekend.

Real Madrid will be looking to move onto six points from two La Liga matches when they continue their 2021-22 campaign away to Levante on Sunday night.
Los Blancos opened their new season with an impressive 4-1 victory away to Alaves last weekend, while Levante played out a 1-1 draw with Cadiz in their first match of the campaign.
We say: Levante 1-2 Real Madrid
Levante have beaten Real Madrid in two of the last three La Liga meetings between the two teams, and the home side are capable of making this a tricky assignment. We are expecting a tight match on Sunday evening but believe that Ancelotti's side will have enough to pick up an important three points.
