Espanyol vs Huesca have the opportunity to open a new stage in La Liga Santander. The meeting is scheduled for Friday at 22:00 on RCDE Stadium. It is a dispute in which both teams need points to achieve their goals.

Espanyol: current form, latest results, statistics

Espanyol managed to get out of the black lap where he stood for almost 10 stages. Now he has won 3 games without defeat, among the opponents being Valencia and Villareal. She put 6 points between her and the first relegable place.

After these last results, Europe began to talk again, and the match with Huesca is seen as an important one in this perspective. There are two home games, one that we analyze with Valladolid, and another 6 points can be hoped.

Recent results are as follows:

  • 27.01.19 Espanyol vs Real Madrid 2-4
  • 30.01.19 Betis vs Espanyol 3-1 (1-1) (Copa del Rey)
  • 03.02.19 Villareal vs Espanyol 2-2
  • 09.02.19 Espanyol vs Rayo Vallecano 2-1
  • 17.02.19 Valencia vs Espanyol 0-0

Oscar Duarte, after a longer absence, and Didac Vila returned to training after solving the medical problems they had. Naldo and Henan Perez remain outside the lot, and Piatti is going to operate. Sergio Garcia left the training session on Tuesday, and Rosales prepared separately.

Borja Iglesias crosses a very good new season. He scored 13 times in the two competitions he participated in. In the January transfer period, Everton attempted to pay him the termination clause, but he did not want to leave the Catalan club with which he has a contract until 2022.

Huesca: current form, latest results, statistics

Monday was not a good day for Huesca. He lost the meeting with Athletic Bilbao, 0-1, and is still on the last position of the rankings, 6 points of the safety seats. He managed to score through Enric Gallego, but the goal was canceled for an offside position.

This defeat interrupted the series of 3 very good matches, in which Huesca got 7 points back in the fight to avoid relegation. Only now has he lost to central defender Pablo Insua, a very important player in the architecture of the game proposed by Francisco.

Insua will work this week, on the left knee, and will be lacking for a longer period. With Bilbao, Dieguez appeared in his place, but his lack of experience was visible when he committed the penalty kick from which the only goal scored.

Let’s see the last 5 meetings:

  • 19.01.19 Huesca vs Atletico Madrid 0-3
  • 27.01.19 Real Sociedad vs Huesca 0-0
  • 01.02.19 Huesca vs Valladolid 4-0
  • 09.02.19 Girona vs Huesca 0-2
  • 18.02.19 Huesca vs Athletic Bilbao 0-1

Because Huesca still needs players, to try to rescue from relegation, recruits are unemployed, free football players. The last is Javi Varas goalkeeper, 36, with over 150 games in La Liga. He also played for Sevilla, Las Palmas and Celta Vigo.

There are a lot of poor positions in the team. Francisco is looking for a central defender to replace Insua, but I think he needs a genuine tip. Luis Ezequiel Avila, with 4 goals scored, is the main creator. He has been recently titled and may become the striker the team needs.

Espanyol vs Huesca Picks

Even if he lost the match with Bilbao, Huesca did not play bad and a tie would have been closer to what happened on the field. Now he has a more difficult meeting at Espanyol, a growing team of form. It is an important game for both combatants, the two trying to get the best result. Even if Espanyol is the favorite I would not necessarily go to her victory, leaving a margin and for a possible result of equality, that is, exactly the result that is missing from the host team’s record in the matches at home.
