I'm on the Spanish who seem to be underrated, Palace (15th) 45pts in the Prem v Vallecano (8th) 50pts in La Liga, Palace are evens.
Vallecano got a couple of La Liga draws v Real Madrid and Barca, beat Atletico as well and Villerreal, all top 4 sides.
But GL Palace who I'd prefer to win, but value on Rayo IMVHAHO.......

I was looking at injuries for the PL season measured by most missed player match days. Tottenham had the most (obv done rubbish) but the top 5 also included Newcastle Liverpool Chelsea (all also done very badly this season) and CP, which was a shock to me. Out of the five teams that have had the most injuries they are the only one not to have significantly under performed. So imo Palace have done very well this season.
Just going on match odds throughout the tournament Palace are around 0.6 goals a game better than Vallecano. I've been following Vallecano a little in the ECL as I had them in a Fantasy team. They've been very average although have improved. I'd be more inclined to back Palace at evens than lay them at evens, but backed them at 9/2 and 5/1 very early on for the tournament |

Incidentally West Ham and Leeds had the least injuries, so there is no doubt imo that West Ham fully deserved to be relegated

Off at a tangent a bit but I was told the year Leicester won the PL they had the least injuries, and Man City, Man Utd and Liverpool had the most. They have a huge negative impact on your season, but get very little credence in the media

I have a similar opinion top you susq, I posted this is another thread last week. RV's unbeaten run is now 9 though as they won again on Saturday.
"Anyone else think that the Europa Conference Final is more even than the odds suggest? Odds on Palace and 3/1 Rayo Vallecano. RV are unbeaten in 8. They won the semi-final 2-0 on aggregate, but the highlights show they created loads of chances and only poor finishing/good goalkeeping prevented a much bigger score line. The commentator referred to them as being 'experts' at corners. Earlier in the year they beat Athletico 3-0 and only lost 0-1 at Barca and 1-2 at Real Madrid, so a decent level of league form. Palace aren't world beaters either are they? 3/1 seems a decent price about RV in 90 minutes" |

There's a disturbing drift on Palace currently... But I'm sticking with them.
Good-Luck Palace.. |

Vardy was a master at winning penalties. Won one for Cremonese that prolly should have been overruled by VAR at the weekend

everyone in England thinks Palace are FAVS because we know them so well
everyone in Spain thinks Vallecano are FAVS because they know them so well  it's insular thinking but objectively, I fail to see how Palace are such firm favs. the Spanish will look at Palace in 15th and find it laughable they're favs, given they know they got results against all the best sides in Spain, beat Strasbourg as well who topped the group stage, got past tricky Greek champions and a Turkish side, this is no gimmie. |

2.22 now and I'm starting to feel uneasy... Money rarely tells lies..

I'm hopeful but not in any way confident.
It would be absolutely wonderful if we did manage to win though, fairy tale stuff really. I've no financial interest involved but vast amounts of hope and wishful thinking. COYP. |

I've watched Rayo a couple of times, including a 1-0 defeat to Barca (over a year ago now, but much the same team) in which they created good chances and were robbed by a bad decision after a goal ruled offside, imho. Rayo Vallecano move the ball well and look a tidy outfit. De Frutas is dangerous and will need to be watched quite closely. I've backed Palace, and I think they will win, but don't think it will be as straightforward as UK pundits seem to think. 2-1 or 1-1 and Palace to win on pens is my guess.

Rayo are better than I was expecting. Palace could really do with an early goal to set them on their way.

By:
I'm unconvinced that this is a real trophy but I'm shouting for Palace here.

It’s very messy this game

By:
nearly all finals are tense, should just expect it, no point complaining about it....too much on the line, trophy and Europa Leauge qualification, it's like the Champs Play off finals, nearly always less than 3 goals, only 2 games in the last 25 years have had more than 3 goals.

Rayo a bit dirty with some of their play, player sending off incoming.
