Those of Iraola added a new victory yesterday (2-0 against Alavés) and already they are fourth, with 30 points and tenants of one of the places that give access to the Champions League. Beyond the evident good health of the group, the streak of results throws a devastating fact: they are the most difficult group to beat when playing at home.

The Vallecas stadium, the smallest and narrowest in the First Division (100 meters long by 65 wide) has become an impregnable cauldron where the Madrilenians have added eight victories and a draw in nine games when they play in front of their public.

Only Sevilla at the Sánchez-Pizjuán follow suit (seven wins and a draw in eight games), despite the mystique of the Andalusian field and the quality of the Julen Lopetegui it is well known while Rayo is a recently promoted team, something that revalues ​​the statistic.

The Vallecas phenomenon, in addition to shining in Spain, looks the best European teams directly in the eye. Bayern Munich and PSG, leaders in their respective leagues and among the favorites to win the Champions League, they carry the same background at home as Rayo and even they have a goal average similar to that of the Parisians, possessing one of the most lethal forwards on the planet with Messi , Neymar and Mbappé.

Soccer never ceases to amaze and the Estadio de Vallecas, to date, can afford to be considered one of the most complicated venues in this sport.
