Tenerife vs Espanyol Prediction & Betting tips
Tenerife does not have a helicopter in the eigenhui op tegen eersteklasser Espanyol. This is the first time in the Copa del Rey, which is the moment of the competition.
Tenerife :
In the nineties of the last century large clubs traveled to the Canary Islands with nodding knees. Local pride Tenerife was a solid subtopper in the Spanish Primera Division during the 1996-1997 season, even in the semi-final of the UEFA CUP. Big names like Luis Garcia, Fernando Redondo and Roy Makaay carried the blue white of Los Chicharreros around the shoulders.
That time, however, is already well behind us. Current Tenerife has been in the Segunda Division, Spain’s second level for some time. After several anonymous years, however, the fans may again dream of a return in the Primera Division. Last season, the club finished fourth, but grabbed it in the final of the playoffs next to promotion. This season, Tenerife ninth place for the time being does not go beyond the middle ground, although the difference with the places entitling to participation in the playoffs is only four points. Trainer Jose Marti is already looking forward to the upcoming league match against Osasuna and has already told him to turn into the cup: “The players still do not know who will play. However, I intend to give my reserves playing time. Of course, we want to get as far as possible in the Copa del Rey. ” Pretty words, but the competition has any priority.
Espanyol :
Espanyol, like any season, plays in the middle of the Primera Division. The Catalans would like to make the leap to the left, but because of only a victory in the last five rounds, they are no more than thirteenth.
Like the home club, the visitors also give priority to the competition. Trainer Quique Sanchez Flores has already announced that he will roll out and left players like Victor Sanchez, Javi Lopez, Marc Navarro, Oscar Duarte, Leo Baptistao, Pablo Piatti and Jose Jurado out of the competition. Players like Naldo, Alvaro Vazquez, Marc Roca and Oscar Melendo are barely featured in the RCDE Stadium this season, but may hope for playing on Thursday night. “However, this is absolutely no B-team,” said Sanchez Flores. “Against Tenerife there will be a solid and representative team.” The coach then added the act by including Gerard Moreno and Sergi Darder in his contest selection. They are the absolute excellence of Los Pericos this season.
