Fixture Analysis
Rayo Vallecano welcome Osasuna to Estadio de Vallecas in La Liga (matchday 32). Kick-off is Saturday 20 April 2024 at 16:15 UK time.
Form Guide
Rayo Vallecano — last 10 games: 1W 4D 5L, averaging 0.70 points per game. Last five: D L W D D. They are averaging 0.70 goals per game and conceding 1.20 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings (30%).
In front of their own supporters, Rayo Vallecano have posted 1W 5D 4L from their last 10 home games — 0.80 PPG. At home they are averaging 0.70 goals scored and 1.00 conceded per game.
Looking at their last 10 matches, Osasuna stand at 4W 1D 5L — 1.30 PPG. Last five: W L L W L. Their scoring rate of 1.00 per game is modest, conceding 1.20 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 4 clean sheets in 10 outings (40%) underlines their defensive solidity. Both teams have scored in only 20% of their fixtures — a very low rate that strongly backs BTTS No.
On the road, Osasuna have gone 2W 3D 5L in their last 10 away fixtures (0.90 PPG). Away from home they average 1.10 goals scored and 1.40 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context.
Form points away from home here. Osasuna's 1.30 PPG return is 0.60 points per game ahead of Rayo Vallecano's 0.70 — the visitors are the form-based selection, and Double Chance is an alternative worth pricing if the outright looks tight.
H2H
There is little to separate the sides in our head-to-head data. From 4 H2H matches, Rayo Vallecano have won 1, Osasuna 3, with 0 draws — a balanced record that offers no clear steer on its own.
The 4 H2H matches in our data averaged 2.5 goals per game — a neutral rate that gives no strong lean on the goals market from the H2H alone. The most recent of those, on 15 Dec 2023, ended Rayo Vallecano 0–1 Osasuna — a Osasuna win.
The head-to-head data offers no strong steer in either the result or goals markets. Form, the model and current market pricing should carry more weight for this fixture.
Trading Patterns
Rayo Vallecano in-play and half-time data (last 69 games, 34 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 71% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 66% of the time; of the 14 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 36%; BTTS occurs in 62% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 50% of games (home games); they fail to score in 35% of games.
Osasuna in-play and half-time data (last 69 games, 34 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 71% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 79% of the time; BTTS occurs in 47% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 35% of games (away games); they fail to score in 33% of games.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Rayo Vallecano 49% versus Osasuna 44%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Rayo Vallecano 46% | Osasuna 38%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Rayo Vallecano 0.98 xG and Osasuna 1.06 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Rayo Vallecano attack 0.774 / defence 0.960 | Osasuna attack 1.018 / defence 0.942. League average goals — home 1.340 / away 1.080. Rayo Vallecano's attack rating of 0.774 is below the league average, which holds their xG down at 0.98. Data: built from Rayo Vallecano's last 69 games and Osasuna's last 69.
Result probabilities: Rayo Vallecano 32% | Draw 31% | Osasuna 36%. Fair-value odds: Rayo Vallecano 3.10 | Draw 3.19 | Osasuna 2.75. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome reaches 45%. The draw at 31% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 33% | BTTS Yes probability 41% | Total xG 2.03. Under 2.5 is the strongly backed market at 67% probability — total xG of 2.03 sits well below the 2.5 threshold. The model is projecting a tight, low-scoring match. BTTS No at 59% is only a slight lean — the model gives both sides a fair chance of scoring, so No isn't a clear standalone call.
Summary & Verdict
The Poisson model's primary lean is Osasuna at 36% — marginal model lean. Recent form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. With a 31% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Osasuna offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win. The opposing side holds a 32% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.
On the goals line, Poisson's 2.03 combined xG gives a 67% probability to Under 2.5 — reasonable conviction, supported by recent form (Rayo Vallecano's last 10 home games and Osasuna's last 10 away games) averaging 2.1 goals per game.
Poisson assigns a 59% probability to BTTS No based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates are neutral — both teams scored in: Rayo Vallecano 50% (last 10 home games) | Osasuna 60% (last 10 away games).

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Rayo Vallecano beat Osasuna 2-1 at Estadio de Vallecas, Regular Season - 32, in the La Liga. The remainder of the report sets that outcome against the pre-match model, the markets and the teams' data profiles.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Rayo Vallecano 0.98 xG and Osasuna 1.06 xG, a combined 2.03. The scoreboard read 2-1 for 3 actual goals. Rayo Vallecano beat their projection by 1.0 — clinical relative to the chances the model priced in. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Rayo Vallecano attack 0.77 / defence 0.96 against Osasuna attack 1.02 / defence 0.94, drawn from 69/69 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Rayo Vallecano 32% | Draw 31% | Osasuna 36%, with Osasuna to win its most likely call at 36%. The actual Rayo Vallecano win had been the model's second-ranked read at 32%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 33%. The game delivered 3, so it went over — against the model's lean. Over 1.5 had been 61% and landed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 41% and the match saw both sides score — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 42% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Rayo Vallecano 46%, Osasuna 38%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 46%, which did not match the both-scored outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Rayo Vallecano's trading profile (69 games, 34 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 49% of their matches — today it did; they keep a clean sheet 30% of the time, and conceded here.
Osasuna's trading profile (69 games, 34 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 44% of their matches — today it did; they keep a clean sheet 30% of the time, and conceded here.
Form vs Result
The form lines were close — Rayo Vallecano 1.16 PPG, Osasuna 1.33 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Rayo Vallecano win broke the near-deadlock.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 0 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (miss). This one broke away from the data — most of the pre-match signals were overturned by how the ninety minutes actually played out.
