Espanyol – Villarreal : Preview & Prediction
Espanyol Barcelona finished second division champions last year, so they are coming back a season after relegation. A quick comeback for a club that had been in the first division for many years. The club did not lose on their return to La Liga, and came back from their trip to Osasuna with a draw.
Villarreal had a historic season last year with a victory in the Europa League, his first European competition. The yellow submarine will therefore play in the Champions League this year, and fortunately since they finished “only” 7th in the league. This year, the new year started at a slow trot, with a penalty loss (1-1 in regulation) against Chelsea in the European Supercopa, and a sad draw against Granada in La Liga.
Espanyol Barcelona finished as Liga Adelante champions last year.
Espanyol drew 0-0 at Osasuna in their first league game.
Villarreal finished 7th in La Liga last year.

The yellow submarine has the means to win with a Gerard Moreno who will have to prove after his great season last year. Victory for Villarreal! For a safer bet, win or draw from Villarreal!
