Latest football commentary Villarreal vs Rayo Vallecano
Villarreal have not enjoyed a good run of form in La Liga since their 3-0 win over Deportivo Alaves before the international break, going five games without a win in all competitions, including La Liga and the Copa del Rey. A third straight defeat on Sunday against Real Betis (2-1) added to the worries. Despite Alex Baena scoring a late equaliser for the hosts, goals from Vitor Roque and Giovani Lo Celso secured all three points at the Estadio de la Ceramica.

Villarreal are currently sixth in La Liga with two games remaining before the winter break. They are just one point behind Mallorca in fifth and seven points behind Athletic Bilbao, who are fourth, the final Champions League spot. Despite his inconsistent form, Ayoze Perez has been a bright spot for the team this season. After a successful season at Real Betis, in which he scored 11 goals, Perez has scored 10 goals and provided two assists in 13 games in all competitions this season, becoming a key player for Villarreal.
Meanwhile, Rayo Vallecano have enjoyed a positive run of results recently, especially since their defeat to Athletic Bilbao on December 1. The team are unbeaten in three consecutive La Liga and Copa del Rey games, winning away at Unionistas de Salamanca and Valencia, and recently drew 1-1 with Real Madrid. The match against Los Blancos saw them take a 2-0 lead after just 36 minutes thanks to goals from Unai Lopez and Abdul Mumin. Although Real Madrid equalised in the second half through goals from Federico Valverde, Jude Bellingham and Rodrygo, Rayo Vallecano still held on for a valuable point.
With this form, Rayo Vallecano is currently ranked 13th in La Liga, 6 points behind Espanyol in the relegation zone and 6 points behind Villarreal. In particular, this team plays very solidly when playing away, conceding only 6 goals after 8 away matches in La Liga this season. Only Atletico Madrid (5 goals conceded) and Real Sociedad (2 goals conceded) are the teams that have conceded fewer goals than Rayo Vallecano when playing away. This proves that Rayo Vallecano will be a tough opponent and a big challenge for Villarreal in the upcoming match, especially when the home team is having many problems with form.
