Espanyol Alcorcón betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This will be a match between two teams that are in very different realities. Espanyol is among the 10 best teams in Division I and Alcoron is close to the relegation zone in Division II. So it is clear that there is a huge quality difference between the teams. In the first match between them, Espanyol used a couple of starters and had a draw away. Now, they will use less reserves and will be at home, so it is a good option to back their win.

Preview
Espanyol and Alcorcón face at RCDE Stadium, in a 2nd leg match for the Copa del Rey (16th Finals), after a (1‑1) draw in the 1st leg match. The head‑to‑head record between these two teams couldn't be more balanced, since there were 1 draw and 1 win for each team in the last 3 head‑to‑heads. Both teams register significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth atention.

Analysis Espanyol

The home team comes to this 2nd leg match in advantage after a (1‑1) away draw in the previous match, so a tie may be enough to qualify for the next round. This is a team that, oddly enough, has had better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 7 draws and 2 losses in away matches; against 6 wins, 5 draws and 4 losses at their stadium. They come to this match after a away loss against Barcelona by (4‑1). Espanyol has won 4, tied 4 and lost 2 of the last 10 home matches. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 5 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Espanyol will have their first match in this competition, as their first match was away from home, against Alcoron, that ended in a 1-1 draw. In the league, they are having a reasonable campaign. In the previous round, they faced Barcelona and had a 4-1 loss away from home, putting an end to their undefeated streak, that lasted for 9 matches. Before, they hosted Sporting GIjon and had a 2-1 win. After 16 rounds, they have 5 wins, 7 draws and 4 losses, currently in 9th place. In this match, they should maintain a 4-4-2 formation.

Confirmed Lineup: Roberto Jiménez, Óscar Duarte, Rubén Duarte Sánchez, David López, Diego Reyes, José Jurado, José Antonio Reyes, Javi Fuego, Pablo Piatti, Gerard Moreno , Felipe Caicedo.
Coach: L. Ramis Monfort.

Analysis Alcorcón

The away team comes to this 2nd leg match in disadvantage, since despite the 1st leg draw they have conceded 1 goal at home. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 2 draws and 10 losses in away matches, with 8 goals scored and 24 conceded; against 10 wins, 4 draws and 1 loss at their stadium, with 20 goals scored and 6 conceded. In their last match, for the Segunda División, they got an away loss against Tenerife by (2‑0). In the last 10 away matches Alcorcón has won 1, tied 2 and lost 7. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 6 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Alcoron heads into their 4th match in this competition, and their second away from home, after they managed a 1-1 draw at home in the first match. Before this round, they eliminated Getafe and Elche. In the Liga Adelante, they aren't having a good campaign. In the previous round, they played away against Tenerife and had a 2-0 loss. Before that, they hosted Girona and had a 2-1 win. After 19 rounds, they have 9 losses, 4 draws and 6 wins, currently in 17th place, among 22 teams.

Confirmed Lineup: Dani Jiménez, Bellvís, Federico Vega, Nelson, Unai Elgezabal, Dani Toribio, Tropi, Óscar Plano, Álvaro Rey, Iván Alejo, Álvaro Giménez.
Coach: F. Fernández Díaz.
