Prediction: 2-1
Alaves
RCDE Stadium will host Saturday’s football match between Espanyol and Deportivo Alaves, the two sides who sit in the bottom half of the La Liga standings. Espanyol’s top flight status is in great danger as they are six points behind the “safe zone” ahead of the restart. Los Periquitos are eager to make amends for a 1-0 loss to Osasuna, but they will have to do it without first-choice goalkeeper Diego Lopez, who is out of contention through suspension.
Anyhow, home win should be considered as this has to go down as a must-win game for the Catalan outfit. The Basques, on the other hand, are undefeated in the previous three league fixtures, but seeing that they are safe for now, punters can definitely find value in betting on los Periquitos. The good news for the visitors is that former Barcelona man Aleix Vidal returns from suspension, but Joselu serves his ban against Espanyol.

Highlighted Player (Victor Sanchez):
Victor Sanchez began his senior career at Barcelona, playing eight games for the Catalan giants in La Liga. He played for Barca B and Barca C in the past as well, but in 2011 he signed a two-year deal with Swiss side Neuchtatel Xamax. In the 2012 winter transfer window Sanchez returns to Spain, but this time out he joined Barca’s local rivals Espanyol.
The midfielder, who is capable of playing as a defender as well, signed a three-and-a-half year deal with los Periquitos and he has been playing for the club ever since. Victor Sanchez won the Champions League, La Liga and Copa del Rey trophies in the 2008/2009 season with Barcelona. He has yet to make his Spain debut, but he has three caps for Catalonia.
Victor Sanchez made seven appearances for Barcelona in the 2008/2009 campaign. Sanchez has a contract with Espanyol, which expires on 30 June, 2018. The midfielder was born on 8 September, 1987 in Terrasa.
Highlighted Team (Alaves):
Alaves is a Spanish football club located in Vitoria-Gasteiz, Alava. The club were founded in 1921 and they play their home games at Estadio Mendizorrotza. The capacity of the stadium is 19,840 and it has to be noted that it is the third oldest stadium in Spanish football. After spending several years in the Spanish Segunda Division, los Babazorros returned to the top flight in 2016.
The color of Alaves’ home kit is blue and white and the club’s local rivals are fellow Basque sides Real Sociedad, Athletic Club, Osasuna and Eibar. Alaves made it to the UEFA CUP final in 2001, but they were beaten by Liverpool 5-4 in a thrilling football clash. Anyhow, that is still regarded as the club’s biggest success. Los Babazorros booked their place in the Copa del Rey quarter-finals on four occasions and they have yet to win the Primera Division trophy.
