Match Preview
Barcelona clinched their second consecutive victory in La Liga on Thursday, securing a two-goal triumph over bottom-dwellers Almeria, with Fermin Lopez netting a brace for the Catalan side. This result propelled Xavi’s squad to 79 points from 36 league outings this season, boasting a record of 24 wins, seven draws, and five losses.

They now maintain a four-point advantage over third-placed Girona with only two gameweeks remaining. A win in their upcoming match on Sunday would cement Barcelona’s second-place finish, but they must remain vigilant as a draw or even a defeat could alter their standing depending on Girona’s performance against Valencia.
While securing the runner-up position might not meet the lofty standards of the Catalan giants, their journey to the quarter-finals of the Champions League and other positive strides throughout the season are noteworthy. Despite ongoing speculation surrounding Xavi’s future, the players are fully focused on on-field matters and are determined to claim a third consecutive league triumph ahead of their final clash against Sevilla.

On the other hand, Rayo’s recent 2-1 victory over Granada, courtesy of goals from Florian Lejeune and Jorge de Frutos, has positioned Inigo Perez’s side in 15th place, six points clear of relegation-threatened Cadiz with two matches remaining.
While Rayo’s head-to-head record with Cadiz is identical, their superior overall goal difference makes relegation seem unlikely at this stage. Notably, Rayo’s unbeaten streak against Barcelona in their last five league encounters, including three wins and a draw earlier this season, underscores their recent dominance over the Catalan side. Moreover, their solid away record of 18 points from 18 league matches during the 2023-24 campaign adds further confidence as they prepare to face Barcelona.

Latest team news
Barcelona faces another weekend without key players Gavi, Alejandro Balde, and Frenkie de Jong, all sidelined until the 2024-25 season. Furthermore, Ronald Araujo’s availability is in doubt due to knee pain, potentially ruling him out for the remainder of the campaign. Despite these setbacks, Fermin’s stellar performance against Almeria is expected to secure his place in the midfield lineup. Manager Xavi is anticipated to make several changes from the squad that secured victory on Thursday, with Andreas Christensen, Joao Cancelo, Ilkay Gundogan, and Raphinha likely to return to the starting XI, replacing Hector Fort, Sergi Roberto, Pedri, and Ferran Torres.
On the other side, Rayo Vallecano prepares to face Barcelona without Oscar Trejo, who received a red card in their previous encounter with Granada. Diego Mendez’s season-ending ligament injury is another blow for the capital side, but they remain in good shape overall, with coach Inigo Perez having a wealth of options at his disposal. Jorge de Frutos’s impactful goal off the bench against Granada could earn him a starting role, while Sergio Camello is set to lead Rayo’s attacking line once again, supported by the likes of Kike Perez, Randy Nteka, and Radamel Falcao from the bench.
Expected Lineups
Barcelona possible starting lineup:
Ter Stegen; Kounde, Cubarsi, I Martinez, Cancelo; Fermin, Christensen, Gundogan; Yamal, Lewandowski, Raphinha
Rayo Vallecano possible starting lineup:
Dimitrievski; Balliu, Mumin, Lejeune, Espino; U Lopez, Valentin; Palazon, A Garcia, De Frutos; Camello
