Bilbao put out from Copa Del Rey Barca only three days ago, but to play that match - won in extratimes - with half of the starters should have consequences.

Adding to this, most used starter and best assistman Muniain ( att.20 2g 5assists) has covid and is not called, second scorer Sanchet ( 4g), Yeray ( def.12), Vencedor ( midf.19+1) are all out.

Bilbao loose one, but won only two times far from home ( 2-8-1 7/5)

Rayo good home team ( 8-2-0 20/4 best home defense). For them no midweek match, Valentin ( midf.14+4) only relevant miss, while first keeper Dmtrievski return available since 18th of December as co topscorer Alvaro Garcia ( 5g) absent in last match.

So, important return in a strong home team and tiredness and important absences for weak away Bilbao. Rayo already won in reverse match in September, can repeat the success here
