Barcelona’s Recent Performance
Barcelona aims to maintain its unbeaten record in 2025, having not lost a match since December 21st, when they suffered a 1-2 defeat against Atlético Madrid in La Liga.
Since then, Barça has played 11 matches across all competitions, winning 9 and drawing 2. The team currently sits in third place in the La Liga standings with 28 points, trailing Real Madrid (first) by 3 points and Atlético Madrid (second) by 2 points.
Battle for the Top Spot
Barcelona will be looking for a crucial victory to seize the top position in La Liga following Real Madrid’s 1-1 draw against Osasuna and Atlético Madrid’s slip against Celta Vigo by the same scoreline.
However, the match won’t be an easy task, as Rayo Vallecano is fighting for a spot in European competitions. The team currently holds sixth place, which qualifies for the UEFA Europa Conference League playoffs. They are six points behind Villarreal, who occupy the fifth spot that grants direct qualification to the UEFA Europa League. Rayo will be eager to close that gap with a win.
