Elche vs Espanyol: Catalans are favorites

Espanyol, how much is in that word. And it is the truth. It is possible that today Espanyol is the first team of Barcelona. These guys are too good.

Elche is an average team that will flounder between staying in the middle of the standings and fighting for survival. Nothing more or less. Yes, the team has every chance to score points against Espanyol, but it is difficult to seriously assess this team. They can lose when it is vital to win, and you have already witnessed it. Villarreal was in a deep crisis, and the victory over Elche helped them to get out of there. Maybe they can help Espanyol a little bit.

Espanyol won three of their last four matches. After a poor start, the team picked themselves up and began to take out everyone in a row. One of their victims was Real Madrid who previously had no losses in the championship. So the team from Barcelona is now in good form and it is unlikely that an Elche can embarrass them.

As long as Espanyol is on fire, they’ll have no difficulty beating outsiders. And Elche is one of them. There is a feeling that the Catalans will be able to score points away.

I propose to do the easiest thing and take Handicap Espanyol (0). It is clear that Espanyol is the favorite, but a draw may well happen. That said, the encounter is unlikely to be high-scoring. The teams are going to wait for their chance. Good luck everyone!
