Espanyol Leganés betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The moment of the two sides is not the most positive, however, Espanyol is the great favorite to win this game. The home team should enter the field in a very offensive way, with a high block, looking for the goal from the early minutes. Leganés should play only in the counterattack, a transition in which it will, most likely, create a lot of danger. In addition, we believe that both Espanyol and Leganés enter the field at full strength. That said, betting in favor of the goals in this game is of enormous value.

Analysis Espanyol

The home team is currently in the 14th position of the league, with 21 points won, after 6 wins, 3 draws and 8 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against Real Betis, by (1‑3). In the last match, they lost in an away match against Atlético Madrid, by (1‑0). This is a team that usually plays better at home, where they have won 15 points, against only 6 points in away matches. In the last 8 home league matches Espanyol has a record of 5 wins and 3 losses, so they have won 15 points out of 24 possible. There are a few recurrent results in their home matches: at half‑time 0‑0 (3 out of 8 matches) and after the 90' 1‑0 (3 out of 8 matches). They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 17 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 6 times and have never been able to turn the score around. there is 1 period that stands out in the last 20 home matches for all competitions: they have suffered 8 of their 21 goals between minutes (31'‑45').

Espanyol is going through a very negative phase of the season, registering several defeats in the last matches, the last of them against Atletico Madrid. It is important to note that the locals come from 6 consecutive losses in the Spanish championship. In this home game, coach Rubi should act in the usual tactical system, that is, the 4-3-3, privileging ball possession and the organized attacks. It is important to emphasize that Espanyol has presented several defensive weaknesses, however, the ability in the counterattack has surprised by the positive. Borja Iglesias is the team's star with 8 goals. For this match the coach can not count on Granero, suspended, besides Javi Lopez and Hermoso, these with physical problems.

Analysis Leganés

The away team is currently in the 16th position of the league, with 19 points won, after 4 wins, 7 draws and 6 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in an away match against Celta de Vigo, by (0‑0). In the last match, they tied in a home match against Sevilla, by (1‑1). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, since they have won 6 points in away matches and 13 points at their stadium, with 9 goals scored and 7 goals conceded at home, against 7 goals scored and 13 conceded in away matches. In the last 9 away league matches Leganés has a record of 1 win, 3 draws and 5 losses, so they have won 6 points out of 27 possible. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (5 out of 9 matches). Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 17 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 10 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 11 away matches for all competitions there are 2 periods that stand out: they have scored 3 of their 8 goals between minutes (61'‑75'); they have conceded 5 of their 13 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Leganés arrives at this match with a 1-1 home draw against Sevilla, registering the seventh straight match without losing in the Spanish league: the only goal of the team was signed by Vesga. However, we note that the team only conquered 1 win in the nine it played away from home. In this match, coach Mauricio Pellegrino should opt for a defensive strategy, looking only for the counterattack in order to explore the enemy's back. It is important to emphasize that the away team presents great competence in the fast transitions: Óscar Rodríguez is very fast and excellent in transporting the ball for the attack. On the other hand, Guido Carrillo is the team's top scorer with 5 goals scored. The exchange of passes between players is a negative aspect of this side. For this game the coach can not count on Szymanowski, Muñoz and Recio, all from injury.
