Espanyol will be welcoming Zaragoza in one of the La Liga Match tonight. This match will be kicked off early than the others.
Espanyol is currently occupying 5th spot of the table with 32 points in hand, had won lost only 2 matches while playing at home (6 won, 2 draw, 2 lost), and had not lost a single match for the past 5 matches played.
However, not all are a bed of roses for the Barcelona-based side. Striker Juan Albin has suffered from a minor recurrence of injury, which will kept him out for 4 months, while Alvaro Vasquez may continue to stay on the bench. Coutinho and Kalu Uche should be able to feature.
On the other hand, Zaragoza is at bottom of the table, with only 12 points and without a win for all the away matches played (0 won, 3 draw, 8 lost). Zaragoza had not won a single league match since the mid of October last year.
A win tonight will be important for both sides, as Espanyol will be one step closer for a Champion League entry, while Zaragoza are fighting to move out from the relegation zone. Although that Zaragoza had a 2-1 victory over Espanyol in the most recent match, a repeat of the history may not be that easy. Espanyol will definetly have a higher chance of winning if they can continue with their current form.
