James Rodriguez close to Rayo debut

Rayo host Osasuna with excitement among their fans, who are waiting for the debut of James Rodriguez, who could get his first minutes of the season. The Madrid side come into this game after an international break that has served to refresh their ideas, calm their spirits and continue working on a pattern of play that has given them much joy over the last few seasons.
Rayo have four points from the 12 at stake, with one win (Real Sociedad), one draw (Getafe) and two defeats (Barcelona and Espanyol) in the last two matches.
For this game, the main question mark for Rayo is whether James Rodriguez will make his debut, something that seems likely, although he will not start. The Colombian is a differential player with his national team, as he showed this week against Argentina, but Inigo Perez does not want to risk him and, therefore, he could wait for his chance from the bench.
