Espanyol vs Valencia Prediction: Betting on the home team

The 37th round of the Spanish La Liga will open with a match between Espanyol and Valencia. The tournament organizers have decided to postpone this encounter to Saturday. The teams are already without tournament motivation, finishing the season in training mode with increased responsibility.

Espanyol

The Catalans have not won since 10 April and the match against Celta. Since then, they have played five games in the national championship: four defeats and one draw against Osasuna. Espanyol is 13th in the league table with 40 points, and the relegation zone is not a threat to the Catalans. Mallorca is seven points behind. At the same time, Espanyol's home statistics are seventh in the division, +9=5-4, 24:18 goal difference. The upcoming match against Valencia will be the last home game for the Catalans.

Valencia

Valencia's recent stats are no better than Espanyol's, even worse. The Bianconeri's last win came on 19 March, with only draws and defeats since then. On April 23, Valencia played the Spanish Cup final against Betis. The match's regular time ended in a draw, and in the penalty shoot-out, the Levants lost. The Spanish Cup final was the end of Valencia's season. Since then, Valencia has drawn with Levante and Athletic, and, in the last round, they also lost 0:3 to Betis in the domestic cup. Valencia's away statistics are 10th in the division, +5=6-7, 21:28 goal difference.

Expert Betting Tips

The scoreline is almost even, although Espanyol has performed well at home throughout the season, and we doubt the Catalans will lose on Saturday. Valencia is unimpressive. Even at home against a significant rival, Betis, the Valencia coaching staff could not motivate their players properly. As for the total, we think the match will be pretty fun.
