Football Bet of the Day: Goals to fall mainly in Spain

Espanyol can land a few blows on Rayo Vallecano tonight

"Five of Rayo Vallecano's last seven Liga clashes with Espanyol have delivered Over 2.5 Goals"

Back Over 2.5 Goals @ 2.021/1 in Rayo Vallecano v Espanyol

The Parakeets are on their way to Vallecas and Tobias Gourlay expects feathers to fly

Rayo Vallecano v Espanyol
Friday 19:30

Just as we hoped, Bilbao brought the goals to Belgrade, but they got nothing in return. Partisan 0 Athletic 2, so we finished one short.

Here's hoping a couple of Athletic's domestic rivals will do right by us tonight.

Five of Rayo Vallecano's last seven Liga clashes with Espanyol have delivered Over 2.5 Goals and we think there's more fun to be had tonight.

This season, all of Espanyol's first four away games have produced at least three goals and so have five of Rayo's last seven Liga outings anywhere. Over the last year, 15 of Espanyol's 19 road games have been high scorers.

Going back to 2012 and Paco Jemez's arrival in Vallecas, 59% of Rayo's home games have finished with at least three goals.
