Season ticket holders at Estadio Heliodoro Rodriguez Lopez haven't seen too many victories this season, with Tenerife languishing in the 15th position so far. The guesting Rayo Vallecano will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

It's quite the trip for Rayo Vallecano when visiting Tenerife as the cities are 2000 kilometers apart.
