Rayo Vallecano hosts Real Betis today at the Estadio de Vallecas at 21:00, in the match that closes out Matchday 16 of La Liga. Both teams arrive motivated after winning in Europe, but with opposite struggles in the domestic tournament.
Rayo (close to relegation) urgently needs to pick up three points, as their last league victory was in October. Despite playing well recently, results have been elusive. Íñigo Pérez faces the fixture congestion with optimism, though he will be without Nteka, Alemao, and Trejo.

Betis (6th with 24 points) arrives in great form, with only one defeat in their last 10 matches. Pellegrini's side, coming off a Europa League win, are looking to consolidate their European spot. The Chilean lamented the dimensions of Vallecas, while his team suffers key absences such as Isco and Bellerín. Last season, Betis failed to beat Rayo, so a close match is expected.
