Espanyol vs Real Betis Preview
Real Betis seems to have finally come to a bit of form which is an ominous sign for the struggling Espanyol heading into this one. Pablo Machin side is in a miserable domestic form with no real signs of change in their fortunes since his appointment earlier this season. Another defeat here would leave them staring down the barrel of a possible relegation to the Segunda Division.
To put things in perspective, Espanyol is the side with the worst La Liga record score, the worst defensive record and the worst home record. It is therefore no great surprise that they find themselves prop up the division. They are heading into this after taking just one point from their last six league games and was just 1 of 8 games in the league this term RCDE Stadium.
That will push for Real Betis are of course trained by Rubi who made his first return to Espanyol have walked out on the club in the summer. It will be interesting to see what kind of reception she and Iglesias Borja, who did the same thing, it will get. This of course would be in contrast to the jubilant scenes on the final day of last season when Espanyol secured European qualification in front of their own fans.
Iglesias fact has made a limited impact for Betis but he is missed by his old club. Rubi though appear to have turned things around for the Seville side have won their last three games heading into this one.
Host tends to go with Jonathan Calleri and Wu Lei at the top, but only one player has scored more than once so far this season in La Liga for
Espanyol and the midfielder Marc Roca.
Prediction
Espanyol are winless in six consecutive games in all competitions, their last, with the pressure on new coach Pablo Machin already.
The hosts have not won in their last six league well, conceding 10 goals in the last four games.
Real Betis has gained momentum of late, winning their last three league games to boost their confidence.
Prediction: Espanyol 2 2 Real Betis
