Espanyol Real Madrid betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match will be the appearance of some goals, looking at the offensive capabilities of both teams and the expected high rhythm play from both sides it is only natural that we’ll be seeing a large number of goal opportunities. Also, the home team has no more objectives to fight for this season which can make them approach this match on a much more relaxed fashion trying to surprise the visiting colossus.

Preview

Espanyol and Real Madrid face off at Power8 Stadium on this match of the 37th round of La Liga.

As expected the head to head history favours, clearly, the visiting team. Of the last 5 matches between them, all ended with a Real win.

On the first round match, Real hosted and beat the Catalonians 3-0, James Bale and Nacho the scorers.

The last time that Espanyol beat their rivals for this match was all the way back in 2007. 

Analysis Espanyol

Espanyol has 2 wins on their last 5 matches. This might seem grim but notice that they have only lost once on their last 10 encounters, against Barcelona. At the moment they are 9th on the league with 49 points.

Looking at the home team’s stats we can see that they tend to start slow, picking up their rhythm as the match goes on, their best periods being between the 31-45 and 76-90 minutes.

At home, Espanyol only once has managed to turn a losing match around. Of the 9 games where they took the lead, they ended up winning 7 of them at half time and end game.


Confirmed Lineup: Kiko Casilla, Arbilla, Víctor Álvarez, Diego Colotto, Héctor Moreno, Álvaro González, Javi López, Abraham, Víctor Sánchez, Felipe Caicedo, Sergio García.

Analysis Real Madrid

Real Madrid has won 8 of their last 12 matches with their only loss coming at the hands of Juventus on the first leg of the Champions League. Currently they are 2nd on the league table, 4 points behind the leader Barcelona.

Despite having some very important losses for this match, Real still has enough squad depth to take this win back home.

Real is still on the run for the Spanish title but no longer depends only upon themselves to win. This, together with the very low chances that Barca will slip, makes this a very low motivation game for the visiting team.


Confirmed Lineup: Keylor Navas, Carvajal, Marcelo, Pepe, Raphaël Varane, Toni Kroos, Isco, James Rodríguez, Karim Benzema, Gareth Bale, Cristiano Ronaldo.
