Rayo Vallecano vs Cordoba

Preview:

It is true that Rayo Vallecano have the first chance in this one but this is a match for six points on the other hand, and such matches are always tough and close. I tend to believe that Rayo Vallecano's -0.5 opening spread was the right one. As the market jumped on it, we can get +0.75 for Cordoba at the time of writing and I think we have some value worth to be considered for a bet. Both teams have problems creating chances and scoring goals and whenever they win a match, it's usually because of luck as they rarely dominate the opponent if ever. Rayo Vallecano play at home and should have the first chance as I said, but as I don't really trust them up-front and as their defensive line-up isn't very solid either, I wouldn't predict easy times for them. Now with Insua suspended and Ze Castro still injured, it's easy to predict that their defense will not be at its best if it ever was. Cordoba slightly improved compared to the start of the season and if they get lucky to score first, easy money I would say.
