Whilst a disappointing 2-2 draw against Valencia in their last game, is not the worst result they could have experienced, Espanyol will be keen to improve the result in this fixture.

Also, Diego Martinez knows that a run of four losses in six meetings for his Espanyol side, is going to be a tough run of form to change. However that is exactly what he must try to deliver. With five points, they currently sit seventeenth in the League. The breakdown for the team’s record is 1 wins, 4 losses and 2 draws having won one game, drawn two fixtures, and lost four matches.

Espanyol have won one game, drawn one game, and lost one game of their three League matches away from home this season.
