Latest team news for Las Palmas vs Rayo Vallecano
Las Palmas will still be without Kirian Rodriguez, who suffered a recurrence of cancer earlier this year. However, the team hopes both Scott McKenna and Fabio Silva will recover from injuries in time to play in this crucial match.
Fabio Silva could replace Javi Munoz in attack, while Sandro Ramirez and Oli McBurnie are almost certain starters up front.
McKenna is likely to replace Alex Suarez at centre-back. Manager Diego Martinez is expected to have a fairly full squad available for Friday night's crucial match.
On Rayo's side, key defender Andrei Ratiu and goalkeeper Augusto Batalla will return after serving their suspensions. However, midfielder Pathe Ciss will be suspended for this match after receiving a red card in the game against Getafe.
Oscar Valentin is expected to replace Ciss in midfield. Randy Nteka remains doubtful due to injury, while Jonathan Montiel and Abdul Mumin are definitely absent as they have not yet recovered from injury.
Sergi Guardiola is an option in attack, but Adri Embarba is more likely to continue as the starting center forward, while Jorge de Frutos will operate on the wing.

Latest football match prediction: Las Palmas vs Rayo Vallecano
Las Palmas have won 8, drawn 8, and lost 18 of their 34 La Liga matches this season, accumulating a total of 32 points and currently sitting 18th in the table, 3 points behind 17th-placed Alaves.
Diego Martinez's team entered this match after a 2-3 defeat against Valencia – a result that was a major blow at the crucial final stage of the season, with fewer and fewer games remaining.
Las Palmas boasts a quality attack with 40 goals in 34 rounds – a fairly high number considering their position in the league table. However, their defense is a serious problem, having conceded 56 goals – the second worst record in the league.
Nevertheless, the island team has won both of their last two encounters with Rayo in La Liga, including a 3-1 victory in the first leg of this season. However, they suffered a 0-1 defeat at home when hosting their rivals from the capital in their most recent meeting there.
Las Palmas have only won 4 of their 17 home games this season. Meanwhile, Rayo will travel to the Canary Islands with 20 points earned from 17 away games in La Liga 2024-25.
Rayo Vallecano secured a narrow 1-0 victory against Getafe – a crucial result at this stage of the season. Florian Lejeune scored the only goal in the 7th minute, giving the Madrid team all three valuable points.
Coach Inigo Perez's team is currently ranked 8th in La Liga with a record of 11 wins, 11 draws, and 12 losses after 34 matches – a total of 44 points, equal to the two teams ranked immediately after Osasuna (9) and Mallorca (10).
Currently, Rayo are in a position to qualify for the UEFA Conference League play-offs, but they are only two points behind seventh-placed Celta Vigo – a position that could secure them direct entry into the Europa League group stage next season.
Last season, Rayo finished 17th in La Liga, so their current achievement is a big step forward. They are aiming to qualify for European competition for the first time since their UEFA Cup appearance in 2000-01.
Rayo have only scored 36 goals in La Liga this season – fewer than Las Palmas – but their defense is quite solid with only 42 goals conceded, the same as Real Betis – who are competing for a Champions League spot.
