Preview: Real Sociedad vs. Rayo Vallecano

Rayo Vallecano will be seeking to make a hat-trick of wins in La Liga on Monday when they travel to San Sebastian to take on Real Sociedad.

The Madrid-based side have defeated Malaga and Celta Vigo in their last two league matches and will be keen to add to their tally of 16 points from 11 matches with a victory in the Basque Country.

It will not be easy, though, as Real will be desperate for points given their less-than-impressive start to the season.

Philippe Montanier's side are currently 13th in the table, three points behind Rayo but just as many above the relegation zone.

La Real will also head into Monday's encounter on the back of a win, having got the better of high-flying Malaga 2-1 away from home last weekend.

There are no suspension worries for either side.
