Preview: Rayo Vallecano vs. Real Madrid

Struggling Rayo Vallecano take on Real Madrid in La Liga on Saturday looking to get themselves out of the bottom three.

Vallecano have the worst goal difference in the league, which is largely down to their miserable away form, and they come up against a Real side who put seven past Sevilla on Wednesday night.

Real recovered from their El Clasico defeat against Sevilla last time out, with Gareth Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo particularly impressive.

Rayo have a couple of injuries still lingering including Nery Castillo, while Carlo Ancelotti could well name an unchanged side.
