Rayo Vallecano already knows the territory in which they will start their domestic campaign as locals. According to Cadena SER, the red-and-white team will finally play their game against Deportivo Alavés in the Municipal Stadium of Butarque. The match corresponding to the second round of LaLiga will maintain its scheduled date for next August 20. The decision comes after the serious controversy generated in recent weeks around the Vallecas Stadium. The precautionary suspension of the concession by the Madrid Community, after detecting serious structural and security problems in an audit, forced the Madrid team to urgently seek an alternative. Although initially, options like El Plantío in Burgos or José Zorrilla in Valladolid were considered, last-minute negotiations have allowed a deal to be closed. The agreement with the Leganés entity will facilitate the development of the match without obliging the red-and-white fans to travel outside the region. In this way, Butarque will once again become an emergency solution for the Vallecas team. The social mass will maintain geographical proximity while the future of the works required in the Vallecas stadium is clarified. For the moment, the clubs will outline the organizational protocol and the distribution of tickets. LaLiga's institutional confirmation will put an end to the first major logistical headache of the football season. Alaves, who finished 14th in the final table of the previous season with 43 points, 11 wins, 10 draws, and 17 losses in 38 games, and with a -12 goal difference, will seek a win in their next home game against Celta Vigo on February 7, 2027. The team has scored 44 goals and received 56 in the current season, and is 51 points behind leaders Barcelona.
