Rayo boast a record of five wins, seven draws and six defeats from their 18 La Liga matches this season, with a total of 22 points leaving them in 12th spot in the table, seven points ahead of the relegation zone and three points off the top seven.

The capital outfit are unbeaten in their last six matches in all competitions, including their last four in the league, beating Valencia 1-0 before drawing three straight games against Real Madrid, Villarreal and Real Betis.

Inigo Perez's side opened 2025 with a 3-1 success over Racing Ferrol in the Copa del Rey, but their attention is now back on La Liga, and they will be bidding to make it a happy start to a new year in Spain's top flight.

Rayo have performed better on their travels than at home this season, only picking up nine points from their eight matches in front of their own fans, so that is a clear area in need of improvement in the second half of the campaign.

Los Franjirrojos are winless in their last seven league matches against Celta, although both matches between the two sides during the 2023-24 campaign finished in goalless draws.

在本赛季的18场西甲比赛中，雷约取得了5胜7平6负的战绩，总共积22分，排名第12，领先降级区7分，距离前7名有3分的差距。

首都球队在最近六场比赛中保持不败，包括联赛的最后四场比赛，他们以1比0击败瓦伦西亚，然后连续三场战平皇家马德里，比利亚雷亚尔和皇家贝蒂斯。

伊尼戈·佩雷斯的球队在国王杯中以3-1战胜费罗尔竞技队，拉开了2025年的序幕，但他们现在的注意力又回到了西甲，他们将努力在西班牙顶级联赛中为新的一年开个好头。

本赛季，雷约在客场的表现比在主场的表现要好，他们在主场的8场比赛中只拿到了9分，所以在赛季后半段，这显然是一个需要改进的地方。

尽管双方在2023-24赛季的两场比赛都以0 - 0平局结束，但弗兰吉罗霍斯队在最近7场联赛中对阵塞尔塔没有获胜。
