Two sides enjoying unbeaten runs in La Liga face off this weekend as Real Madrid plays host to Espanyol. While Real Madrid leads the standings following a perfect run, Espanyol are third, trailing by two points. Read on to find our prediction of the match.
Real Madrid have been in imperious form under Xabi Alonso, winning all their matches across all competitions so far. The latest of them was in the Champions League as Real rose from behind to beat Marseille 2-1.
Kylian Mbappe scored both of Real Madrid’s goals, extending his good start for the season. Los Blancos aim to open a five-point gap at the top but will have to address conceding in each of the last three and getting red cards in two.
Espanyol are playing with a lot of confidence so far in the season and will want to take the game to Real Madrid. After winning three of their opening matches, Espanyol are now unbeaten in their last five league games and scored twice or more in four.
This run has mostly been coined in home matches, and Espanyol will be hard-pressed to carry the same run to Madrid. That will be a tough one, as they haven't won an away league game in five. They’ve also conceded two or more in the last three away matches.

Our Real Madrid vs Espanyol Prediction
Like their hosts, Espanyol are unbeaten in the opening four matches of the season and will be confident of getting a result here. The last time these teams faced off, Espanyol secured a rare win. Real Madrid will not only be out to avenge that defeat but also extend their own unbeaten run.
The hosts are on five straight wins to start the season, but they haven't really been airtight at the back. With that, we’d back Espanyol to score in this game. Our prediction for Real Madrid v Espanyol is for Real Madrid to win and both teams to score.
