Rayo Majadahonda vs Gijon Prediction & Betting tips
The search for interesting matches at club level during the current international break leads today to Spain. There it goes for the Club de Fútbol Rayo Majadahonda and Real Sporting de Gijón in the 1/32 finals of the Copa del Rey for the entry into the next round. Both teams are currently based in La Liga 2 – the second highest Spanish division – and entered the second round of the cup competition. Rising star Rayo Majadahonda had a very challenging task with UD Las Palmas, because Las Palmas is one of the more ambitious second division teams. Nevertheless, the team of head coach Antonio Iriondo won their match 2-1 as well as Gijon at Numancia.
Already ten days ago, both teams met in the second Spanish league. Rayo Majadahonda had the better end as the host, although Gijon played well and from their point of view a draw would have been a fairer outcome than a 1-2 defeat.
Nevertheless, it is noticeable that Gijon is standing outside the gate regularly on the hose. Sporting scored only four goals in five out-of-competition away games, two of which were attributable to their own own goals. The remaining two goals scored the team of head coach Rubén Vegas only in the final minutes.
Rayo Majadahonda:
The Club de Fútbol Rayo Majadahonda has worked steadily up in recent years. After three years in the third-highest Spanish league, the team of head coach Antonia Iriondo rose in the last season for the first time in the Segunda División and wants to establish itself there. So far, however, it is only growing through, even if the relegation ranks have been successfully kept at a distance. After the ninth round of matches, the eleven from Majadahonda – a city near the Spanish capital Madrid – with a record of four wins and five defeats, a goal difference of 7:12 and twelve points in the thirteenth place stands.
Most recently, the Iriondo team was able to free themselves from a crisis with three defeats in a row against Granada (0: 3), Extremadura UD (1: 4) and Malaga (0: 1). The last two games against Sporting Gijon (2-1) and Real Oviedo (1-0) have been won again. In particular, the flaring vulnerabilities on the defensive was able to stifle Iriondo obviously recently back in the bud, what only concede two goals in the last three games.
Gijon:
Real Sporting de Gijon played in contrast to the upcoming opponent never in a lower class than the Segunda División and had in recent years sporadically times in La Liga look. For the last time Sporting rose in the penultimate season from the highest Spanish league and sniffed in the past season, even on the direct resurgence. The play-off games for the rise against Real Valladolid were then lost but with a total score of 2: 5. In the current season, the team of head coach Rubén Vegas plays so far rather restrained and seems after the missed opportunity for advancement still slightly bewildered. With a balanced record of three wins, three draws and three defeats, a goal difference of 9: 7 and 12 points, it currently only enough for tenth place.
In the last five games, the Vegas side had their worst phase so far and could actually win only one game when it was enough for UD Las Palmas at home to a narrow 1-0 win. Before that, they drew 1-1 with CD Numancia before losing 1-0 to Osasuna. In the last two competitive games Gijon conceded the previously mentioned 1: 2 defeat against Majadahonda, before again last weekend followed a 1-1 draw against Reus Deportiu. Striking is the weakness in front of the opposing goal, because four goals are for a club promoted as promotion favorites rather mau.
