Prediction: 1-0
Osasuna
Following a 2-2 draw with Real Sociedad, Espanyol will look to return to winning ways when they face Osasuna in the La Liga round 3. Los Periquitos made a promising start to the season and their 2-1 win over Atletico Madrid at RCDE Stadium must be fuelling fans with optimism ahead of Sunday’s clash. Midfielder Javier Hernandez remains in the recovery room, but there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
Los Rojillos, on the other hand, quickly bounced back from a 3-0 loss to Real Madrid, with the team beating Valencia 1-0 thanks to Ante Budimir’s goal at the weekend. Osasuna, though, are not regarded as good travellers and given Espanyol’s fine performances in the early stages of the season, home win should be considered. Moi Gomez is a major doubt after picking up a knock against los Che, whereas Abel Bretones is back from suspension.
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.
