Both league matches between the two sides during the 2023-24 campaign actually finished level, with the pair playing out a goalless draw at Bernabeu in November 2023 before it finished 1-1 in the reverse fixture in February 2024.
Their last meeting at the home of Rayo also ended in a draw, with the pair sharing the points in a 3-3 in December 2024, but Real Madrid were 2-1 winners over Rayo in the reverse fixture at Bernabeu in March 2025.
Rayo have a recent success over Real Madrid to their name, triumphing 3-2 in November 2022, and Real Madrid have only won two of the last six league meetings between the two sides.
Real Madrid's biggest-ever win over Rayo Vallecano came in December 2015, when they incredibly recorded a 10-2 victory, and all but two of their 46 fixtures throughout history have taken place in La Liga.
Rayo Vallecano only have six league wins over Real Madrid to their name, with five of those coming on home soil.
Los Franjirrojos' only La Liga win at Bernabeu came back in January 1996, when Guilherme Alves netted a brace in a 2-1 success over a Real Madrid side that found the back of the net through their legendary forward Raul.
