This metric is derived from each player's average match rating across all league appearances this season — anything above 7.00 is considered strong, while below 6.50 signals inconsistency. Girona's highest-rated starter is Arnau Martinez (6.82), while Rayo Vallecano's best-rated player is Óscar Valentín (6.83).

Rayo Vallecano's starters account for 8 goals and 8 assists, spearheaded by Álvaro García (4G).

Defensive Solidity

Girona deploy 3 defenders rated 6.82 on average, against Rayo Vallecano's 3-man backline averaging 6.83. Higher defensive ratings suggest better positional awareness, fewer individual errors, and a greater likelihood of keeping clean sheets. The rating accounts for tackles won, interceptions, aerial duels, and blocks throughout the season.

Midfield Control

Girona field 5 midfielders averaging —, versus Rayo Vallecano's 4 rated 6.57. Midfield ratings reflect passing accuracy, interceptions, key passes, and overall control of possession — the team that dominates midfield typically dictates the tempo and territory of the match.

Forward Threat

Girona start 2 forward(s) averaging —, compared to 3 for Rayo Vallecano averaging 6.73. Forward ratings capture shot accuracy, movement off the ball, dribbling success, and involvement in build-up play — they indicate who carries the greater goal threat on the day.

Passing & Build-Up

Passing accuracy averages 85% for Girona and 81% for Rayo Vallecano. Higher passing accuracy generally indicates a possession-based style with patient build-up through the thirds, while lower figures may suggest a more direct, counter-attacking approach with long balls and quick transitions.

Discipline

Girona's starters have collected 6 yellow cards this season, compared to 18 for Rayo Vallecano. Yellow cards reflect how aggressively a team presses and tackles — a high count may indicate a physical, high-pressing style but also risks suspensions and late free-kicks in dangerous areas.

Age & Experience

The average age of Girona's starting XI is 29.5 (youngest: Arnau Martinez (22), oldest: Juan Carlos (37)), while Rayo Vallecano average 33.0 (youngest: Óscar Valentín (31), oldest: Óscar Trejo (37)). Younger squads typically offer pace, energy, and pressing intensity, while experienced lineups bring composure, game management, and the ability to handle high-pressure moments.

Squad Depth

Girona's starters average 16 league appearances each, versus 24 for Rayo Vallecano. High appearance counts indicate an established, well-drilled unit that the manager trusts week in and week out. Lower figures may suggest rotation, injuries, or emerging players still earning their place in the team.
