Match Preview
Espanyol welcomes Real Betis to the RCDE Stadium on Sunday evening, with both teams looking to improve their standings in La Liga. The hosts have shown resilience lately, securing two wins in their last five outings, while Betis has struggled, managing just one victory in the same period. Historically, this fixture has been closely contested, with Espanyol winning five of the last ten encounters, highlighting their home advantage.
One key angle to consider is the trend of both teams scoring in recent matches. Seven of the last ten meetings have seen both sides find the net, and with Espanyol's attacking form improving, they will likely look to exploit Betis's defensive vulnerabilities. The visitors, despite their inconsistent form, possess the attacking talent to respond, making this clash potentially high-scoring. As both teams seek vital points, expect an engaging match that could see goals at both ends.
