Villarreal vs Espanyol Prediction & Betting tips
Interesting game is what awaits us this Wednesday at the Stadium of Ceramics when a Villarreal who is not in good time receives the visit of one of the protagonists of the season as is Espanyol, in game corresponding to the first leg of the round of 16 of the King’s Cup of Spain.
Villarreal:
Well, the moment lived by those led by Luis García that comes from drawing to zero goals in his visit to Eibar is very worrying and in this way they added their third consecutive draw and their fifth game without winning in the League and in this way they are seriously compromised with the theme of permanence, since they occupy the 18th square in the red zone with their seventeen points.
Yes, the yellow submarine knows that it can not despair every time is only two points that it away from salvation, but now it’s time to focus on the Copa del Rey and get a good result that allows to forget the poor season that comes realizing and incidentally collecting the revenge of what happened in the previous edition 2017/18 when he was eliminated in this same instance before Leganés.
Espanyol:
Meanwhile, those led by Rubí come from getting a good result as was the 1-0 win over Leganés and thus Espanyol left behind a streak of six consecutive defeats, the same ones that have allowed him to leave qualifying places UEFA competition and so now they are placed in eighth place with 24 points, but the win over Leganés has motivated them again since the difference with Real Betis is two points so they do not have to panic.
Now is the time to focus on the Copa del Rey and at least match what was done in the previous edition 2017/18 when they reached the quarterfinals, being eliminated by Barcelona, who won at home 1-0 but unfortunately on the floor blaugrana could not get the desired result and fell by 2-0, and because it also awaits a hard task every time they have to visit a Villarreal against whom they have only won once in their thirteen visits, where eight ended in defeats.
