Espanyol on the other hand are really struggling and were only able to register 1 win from their 9 matches so far. Quique Sanchez Flores, who took over as head-coach at the start of the season is under tremendous pressure as his side look to end the poor run of results. In all honesty, he doesn’t have the kind of players to turnaround the bad run. They will come into Sunday’s game sitting 16th in the league table, level on points with Sporting Gijon at the final relegation spot.

Real Betis vs Espanyol: Prediction
Real Betis have a good record against moderate teams in the league. And they have only lost once at home this season and that was against Real Madrid. Despite these positives, Espanyol have managed to hold Betis to draws on most occasions under similar circumstances. We believe this is another one which is destined to end in a stalemate. And a correct full-time score of 1-1 is very much for the taking.
