The home side are currently 15th in the table, boasting 17 points from their opening 16 matches of the season, while Rayo are ninth, having collected 23 points from their first 16 games of 2022-23.
We say: Real Valladolid 1-1 Rayo Vallecano
Real Valladolid have won four times in front of their own fans in the league this season, but they are difficult to back at the moment due to their recent form. Rayo are enjoying an impressive campaign, meanwhile, and we believe that the points will be shared on Saturday afternoon.

Sevilla will be bidding to make it three straight wins in all competitions when they continue their La Liga campaign away to Girona on Saturday afternoon.
Jorge Sampaoli's side will enter the match off the back of a 2-1 victory over Getafe, while Girona played out a 2-2 draw with Espanyol in their last league fixture.
We say: Girona 1-1 Sevilla
Sevilla are far too good to be struggling towards the bottom of the table, and they should be able to rise up the division in the coming weeks. Girona have only lost twice at home in the league this term, though, so we have had to settle on a low-scoring draw on Saturday afternoon.
