Prediction: 2-0
Huesca
Buoyed by back-to-back wins over Mirandes and Eibar, Espanyol will look to stay in the automatic promotion berth when they face Huesca on Matchday 29. Los Periquitos have found their best form of late, but they need to keep on making progress if they are to secure a top-two finish. All Pol Lozano, Fernando Calero, Eduardo Exposito, and Nico Melamed are sidelined with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
Los Azulgranas, on the other hand, are only two points clear of the relegation zone ahead of the trip to Catalonia. As Espanyol are on a three-game winning run at home ground, we predict that the visitors are going to return to Aragon with their hands empty. To make things even more complicated for the visiting side, defender Ruben Pulido serves a one-game ban due to the accumulation of yellow cards.
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.
