Betting Predictions
When Barcelona visits Rayo Vallecano on Tuesday night, they will be looking to make it three wins out of three at the beginning of the 2024–25 La Liga season.
In their first two games of the new season, Hansi Flick’s team has defeated Valencia and Athletic Bilbao; meanwhile, Rayo has made a strong start and has taken four points from their two matches.
Head-to-Head
Under Hansi Flick, Barcelona has had a strong start to the season, winning their opening two league games. On their trip to Rayo Vallecano, they aim to make it three out of three. FC Barcelona has won 14 of the previous 19 games they have played against other teams, while Rayo Vallecano has won 3. Rayo Vallecano has suffered a 0-1 loss to Athletic Club, a 1-2 victory over Real Sociedad, and a 0-0 tie with Getafe in their past three games. Barcelona’s three straight victories, beginning with a 1-2 loss to Sevilla, make them seem amazing. After that, Valencia defeated Athletic Club 2-1 despite being overwhelmed in their victory.
Team News
Due to a muscular issue, Andrei Ratiu will miss Rayo’s next game. Other than that, the home team is well-prepared for Tuesday’s match, thus few changes are anticipated in the starting lineup.
Nevertheless, because of the short turnaround, the team is expected to be rested, meaning that Oscar Trejo may be moved to the bench and Isi Palazon may start at number 10.
Meanwhile, Sergio Camello will probably be added to the team as the center-forward, and Randy Nteka will probably be dropped after making back-to-back starts in 2024–25.
Five players from Barcelona will be sidelined due to injuries: Andreas Christensen, Ansu Fati, Ronald Araujo, Frenkie de Jong, and Gavi.
Although new addition Olmo’s coach, Flick, has acknowledged that he ‘does not know’ if he will register in time, the Spaniard is unlikely to start because of his lack of playing time, even if the team is successful.
Fermin Lopez, who is returning after representing Spain at both the Olympics and Euro 2024, might be the only alteration made to the squad that took the field against Athletic at kickoff. Ferran Torres will be replaced by Fermin Lopez.
Probable Line-Up
Rayo Vallecano XI:
Cardenas; Balliu, Lejeune, Mumin, Espino; Valentin, Ciss; De Frutos, Palazon, Embarba; Camello
Barcelona XI:
Ter Stegen; Kounde, Cubarsi, I Martinez, Balde; Bernal, Pedri; Yamal, F Lopez, Raphinha; Lewandowski
Verdict
Tip Barcelona to Winâś…
Reason
Rayo deserves a great deal of credit for their strong start to the season, and the capital team has proven in recent years that they are capable of giving Barcelona problems. Although we anticipate a close match on Tuesday, Barcelona has the talent to win three games in a row this season.

Tip: Under 2.5 Goals❌
Reason
This season, Rayo Vallecano’s defense has been one of their main advantages. The solitary goal allowed thus far came against Real Sociedad in stoppage time, while the hosts held Getafe to zero on strikes last weekend.
In recent months, Barcelona’s defense has been a complete shambles. The visitors’ recent defensive record against Rayo is strong, but they haven’t kept a clean sheet in their last seven games, giving up two or more goals in four of those games.
