Espanyol vs Real Madrid Prediction: La Liga Match on 28.08.2022

August 26, 2022 by No Comments

Real Madrid picked up a second victory to start the new season last weekend, as they easily beat Celta Vigo 4-1 on the road. Karim Benzema opened the scoring from the penalty spot after 14 minutes, before Celta levelled with their own penalty just ten minutes later.
Real Madrid have made a fast start to their title defence in Spain, as Carlo Ancelotti looks to bring the La Liga title back to the club. Madrid will need to find a new balance within the squad after losing Casemiro to Manchester United during the summer transfer window, which means a number of the younger players will be given an opportunity to shine.

However, Madrid still managed to go into the break with the lead, as Luka Modric found the net. Further goals were added in the second half through Vinicius Jr and Federico Valverde.
Espanyol’s goal this term will likely be to survive in La Liga. However, they come into this fixture still looking for a first victory of the season. They have already allowed four goals in the two games that they have played, which means that they will need to tighten up defensively ahead of the visit of the European champions.

Espanyol vs Real Madrid Prediction

It looks hard to bet against Real Madrid maintaining their perfect record in La Liga this weekend. We could see the travelling side securing a 3-1 victory, with Benzema once again getting on the scoresheet.
Their first home match of the new season didn’t go to plan, as they were beaten 2-0 by Rayo Vallecano. Both sides lost players to red cards in the opening half, with Sergi Gomez sent off for Espanyol. However, it was Vallecano that responded better to their sending off, as Isi Palazon and Pathe Ciss scored the goals in the win.
Real Madrid boast an extremely dominant record in this fixture, as they have won 24 of the previous 29 meetings between the sides. During that period, Madrid has averaged 2.5 goals per match, while Espanyol have averaged just 0.4.
