Today’s hosts had their worst away record ahead of their last clash against Valencia, but a draw on Monday will only add to their confidence in this duel. The only thing that worries the club’s mentor is that the schedule is too tight, because the team is opening a new round today. Since the restart of the La Liga championship, the Red-Whites have already won three draws, which gives them a small chance to continue the battle for survival. For 18 rounds of the current Spanish Premier League championship, the hosts have five wins and four peaceful outcomes, which correspond to 19 points and 14th position in the standings. It is impossible not to note the weak indicators in the attack, which differed only once on average, while missing a lot. The last time the team achieved success was on November 9th in a duel with Getafe (1:0). Today Kaiki, who has a knee injury, will not be able to help his team.
Espanyol will benefit from an additional 48 hours of rest, as well as self-confidence after three wins in a row, for the first time this season in La Liga. The Catalans, along with Almeria, are in a very crowded bottom half of the standings, with just five points separating 11th from 19th. After a recent victory over Getafe (2:1) and Betis (1:0), the Parrots are in 13th position. The team has four victories and eight peaceful outcomes, which correspond to 20 points, which is only one more than the hosts. The line of attack looks good, which differed 22 times, while letting in a little more. Last week the team played unsuccessfully in the Spanish Cup, where they could not resist the duel with Athletic Bilbao (0:1). In the infirmary of the team are Baer, ??Gori and Pedrosa, who has a groin injury. More soccer prediction for today can be obtained from the link provided.
