Espanyol set for a narrow win over Leganes
On Friday night, Espanyol will look to get back to winning ways in La Liga, as they welcome Leganes to the RCDE Stadium.
After a very promising start to their La Liga campaign, Espanyol have slipped to 13th place in the Spanish top-flight. In fact, the Catalan club has endured a horror run of form of late, losing their last six league outings, while also conceding at least two goals in five of their last six matches in La Liga. Espanyol have also scored just once in their last four matches in La Liga.
The home side’s recent home form has been a big factor in their drop down the table, as they have lost their last three games on home soil. Their recent home games in the Spanish top-flight have been high scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in four of their last five matches on home soil.
The fact that Espanyol have conceded at least three goals in their last three league games at the RCDE Stadium has been a big factor in the recent high scoring games.
Leganes heads into this clash 16th in La Liga, despite an unbeaten run of seven matches in the Spanish top-flight. However, the visitor’s problem is that they have drawn too many games, drawing their last three matches and five of their last seven games in the Spanish top-flight.
The visitor’s recent La Liga games have been low scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in ten of their previous 11 league matches.
Leganes have found away wins difficult to come by in La Liga, as they have won just one of their last 24 league games on their travels. Their recent away games in the Spanish top-flight have also been low scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in six of their last seven matches.
Forebet predicts that Espanyol will end their terrible run of form by recording a home win in a high scoring encounter.
