Prediction: 3-2
Leganes
Espanyol and Leganes take on each other at Stage Front Stadium in the opening match of the La Liga 2 round 12. Los Periquitos quickly bounced back from a 3-1 loss to Villarreal B, with the team beating Real Valladolid 2-0 at home ground and they must be high on spirits ahead of the visit of Leganes. Midfielder Pol Lozano misses out with a hamstring problem, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
The capital club, on the other hand, rolled over Amorebieta 6-0 in their last league match and given their attacking style of play, we believe that there is a big value in betting on over 2.5 goals. A man to keep an eye on in the away team will be Miguel de la Fuente, who scored a hat-trick against the Basque outfit, while Jorge Miramon should miss out with injury.
Highlighted Team (Espanyol):
Espanyol are a Catalan club that plays in Spanish La Liga. Espanyol were founded in 1900 and their original name was Sociedad Espanola de Football. In 1901 the Catalan club changed its name to Club Espanol de Futbol. Los Periquitos used to play in bright yellow shirts in the past, but current colour of the team’s home kit is blue and white.
Espanyol’s fiercest rivals are Barcelona and the two teams face each other in the Catalan derby (Derbi barceloni). Espanyol have always been in Barca’s shadow, but it has to be noted that los Periquitos have won four Copa del Rey (Spanish Cup trophies).
The likes of Raul Tamudo, Jose Maria, Antonio Argiles and Mauricio Pochettino are players with most appearances for the Catalan outfit. Espanyol play their home games at Estadio Cornella-El Prat and the capacity of the stadium is 40,500. Los Periquitos have never participated in the Champions League.
