Kick-off on March 19, 2026, at 22:00.

As part of the Conference League round of 16, the second leg match between Rayo Vallecano and Samsunspor will take place at the Vallecas Stadium. The first meeting ended in a confident 1-3 victory for the Spanish side, making the Madrid team favorites in the battle for a quarter-final spot. The hosts will try to use their two-goal advantage and the home crowd's support to control the game, while the Turkish club needs to play as aggressively as possible in attack to overcome the deficit.

Rayo Vallecano has been showing stable results since mid-February, maintaining an unbeaten streak of five matches, which includes two wins and three draws. The team relies on an organized defense and active wing play, which allows it to earn points even in confrontations with strong opponents. During the main stage of the tournament, the Madrid side took fifth place, scoring thirteen goals, which was one of the best scoring records in the league. The home status of the match gives the club an excellent opportunity to build on the success of the first game and continue its performance on the European stage.

Samsunspor finished the main stage of the Conference League in twelfth place, after which it confidently overcame the play-off round, beating Shkëndija twice with an aggregate score of 5-0. Thorsten Fink's team demonstrates high intensity and fast play in attack, but in the national championship, the side currently occupies only seventh place. To advance to the next round, the Turkish club needs to capitalize on all its chances in attack and avoid the defensive errors that led to defeat in the first meeting. The upcoming trip to Spain will be a serious test of strength and the ability to play under pressure for the team.
