Espanyol crestEspanyol, Recent Form

Home
most recent

The Espanyol players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their away fixture against Girona recently, that ended in a 2-1 defeat.  They achieved 38% possession in that match and had 5 strikes at goal, with 1 hitting the target, up against Girona's tally of 14 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.  

It's fair to say that manager Diego Martínez will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 7 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 11 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points.  They are consistently finding a way through on goal, scoring in each of their last 13 games.  Their defensive record does not make good reading so far this season as they have conceded at least 1 goal in 23 of their 27 league games.  

Espanyol will not be enjoying their recent run of poor form, having lost 4 league games in a row.  

On an individual basis, Martin Braithwaite will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 4 goals in Espanyol's last 6 league games.

Away

Athletic Bilbao manager Ernesto Valverde will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 0-0 draw in his team's last league outing against Getafe.  In that game they had 64% possession and managed 17 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Getafe who had 9 attempts and 1 on target.  

They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 5 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 6 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points.  There are concerning signs for them, having failed to score in 4 of their last 6 league games.  They will need to tighten up at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in all but 1 of their last 6 away games.  

With 3 matches lost and only 2 wins in their last 6 away matches lately, this has not been a great spell for the team away from home.  

Oihan Sancet will be keen to get his name on the scoresheet against Espanyol in this match, having already scored 2 goals in his last 6 away games for Athletic Bilbao.  

Espanyol vs. Athletic Bilbao Head to head

When these two teams last met in the league it was a 0-1 win for Espanyol.  

Los Leones have some indifferent league form when it comes to away matches against Espanyol; they have shipped at least 1 goal in their last 4 games away to them.  

When playing away from home in the league, Athletic have failed to win any of their last 22 meetings with Espanyol, with the last 2 of those games ending in a draw.
