Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Buoyed by a come-from-behind win over Real Oviedo, Espanyol will be aiming to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on Amorebieta on the penultimate day of the season. Los Periquitos are one point away from securing their spot in the playoffs. Therefore, we are positive that they will adopt a cautious approach in Sunday’s clash. There are no fresh injury concerns in the away team, but all Jofre Carreras, Pol Lozano, Omar Sadik, and Eduardo Exposito remain on the sidelines with injuries.
The Basque outfit, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Villarreal B and Tenerife. Amorebieta are obviously determined to secure yet another Segunda Division survival. As Jandro Castro’s troops want this win more than the visitors, home win should be considered. Both Felix Garreta and Angel Troncho are sidelined with injuries for the visiting side.
Highlighted Team (Espanyol):
![Espanyol](https://footballpredictions.com/wp-content/plugins/fp-highlights/imageid/team/1725.png)
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.
