The Matchday 35 clash in La Liga between Las Palmas and Rayo Vallecano will take place on May 9 at the Gran Canaria Stadium. Las Palmas vs. Rayo Vallecano: prediction and betting odds, statistics.

Las Palmas

The Canary club remains in the bottom three. However, their situation is not critical yet, as they are only three points away from the safe 17th place. Diego Martinez's side had a poor run in their last two league matches, losing away to Athletic (0-1) and then failing at home against Valencia (2-3). Notably, the team has one of the worst defenses in La Liga, having conceded 56 goals. Only Valladolid has a worse defensive record with 83 goals conceded.

  • Las Palmas has won only two of their last 16 league matches (4 draws and 10 losses).
  • Both teams scored in 12 of the last 16 games involving the Canary club in La Liga.
  • The club has not scored in the first half in their last eight La Liga matches.

Predicted lineup for Las Palmas (4-4-2)

Dinko Horkaš – Mika Marmol, Alex Suarez, Alex Muñoz, Viti Rosada – Stefan Bajcetic, Javier Muñoz, Dario Essugo, Alberto Moleiro – Oliver McBurnie, Sandro Ramirez.

Rayo Vallecano

Inigo Perez's side had not won in four consecutive league matches, drawing once and losing three times. They managed to break this streak in the last round, narrowly defeating Getafe 1-0 at home. Due to recent setbacks, the club has slightly dropped in the standings, losing their place in the Europa League zone. However, the gap to the top seven is still small, only two points.

  • The club has not won in 9 of their last 11 La Liga matches (3 draws and 6 losses).
  • At least two goals were scored in 8 of Rayo Vallecano's last 9 La Liga games.
  • The Madrid side has not scored in the second half in 9 of their last 12 away league matches.

Predicted lineup for Rayo Vallecano (4-4-2)

Dani Cardenas – Florian Lejeune, Ivan Balliu, Pep Chavarria, Aridan Hernandez – Isi Palazon, Pathé Ciss, Álvaro García, Unai López – Adrián Embarba, Jorge de Frutos.

Midfielder Pathé Ciss is out due to a yellow card suspension.

Match Prediction: Las Palmas vs. Rayo Vallecano

Both clubs have high motivation as the season nears its end. The Canaries need to survive in La Liga, which requires winning, especially at home. However, the current form of the hosts is not encouraging, as Las Palmas has only won two league matches this calendar year. Additionally, they have not won in 7 of their last 8 home matches in La Liga. In their last nine home games, they have only scored more than one goal twice.

Rayo Vallecano aims for a Europa League spot. Their chances have decreased but remain high. Despite a challenging fixture list, they need to defeat opponents even away from home. It's crucial to play cautiously in defense, which the club occasionally manages. In their last 14 away La Liga matches, the Madrid side has conceded more than one goal only three times. I predict that Inigo Perez's men, if they concede, will allow a maximum of one goal.

My prediction – Las Palmas individual total under 1.5

Las Palmas — Rayo Vallecano betting tips 9 May 2025

Las Palmas are currently in the relegation zone, and every match now carries significant weight in their bid to stay up. They are just three points behind 17th place, but time is running out. Rayo Vallecano, meanwhile, remain in the hunt for a European place, trailing the Europa League qualification spots by only two points. Both sides have plenty to play for.

Las Palmas have endured a dismal second half of the campaign. They have suffered 10 defeats in their last 16 league outings, winning only twice during that stretch. Defensive vulnerabilities have been a major concern — with 56 goals conceded, only bottom club Real Valladolid have a worse record. The attack has not compensated either: the hosts have scored more than once in just three of those 16 games.

Rayo Vallecano recently halted a poor run with a 1:0 win over Getafe. Under Íñigo Pérez, they have embraced a pragmatic style, especially on the road, where they have seen the Total Over 3.5 line surpassed just once in 17 away fixtures. Yet Rayo Vallecano remain a threat going forward, having scored in 17 of their 21 matches since early December. That said, they have found it difficult to score against stronger opponents such as Atlético Madrid, Barcelona, Villarreal, and also RCD Espanyol, who were unbeaten in five games at the time.

The hosts' defensive weaknesses have left them teetering on the edge of relegation. Their inability to shut teams out or produce consistent attacking output has seen them drop crucial points. Rayo Vallecano are likely to dictate the tempo, restricting Las Palmas in the final third while creating chances of their own. Avoiding defeat appears a realistic target. A goal-filled contest does not appear likely.
