Espanyol have the opportunity to rise out of the Spanish La Liga relegation zone when they travel to Villarreal. The opening match of Round 11 has Espanyol sitting 18th, eight places and four points behind Villarreal.
Heading into this encounter, Villarreal boast a fine run in this fixture, and our prediction tips them to win. The season hasn’t gone all fine for Villarreal, who failed to win any of their first five domestic games.
They have since recovered to claim three wins in the last five league matches. The latest was a 2-1 victory in Valencia last time out. They warmed up for this with a 5-0 Copa del Rey win against Manacor.
Espanyol are looking to kickstart their season but will be concerned that Villarreal’s four points at home came in the last two matches they hosted.
The biggest worry, though, should come from the fact that they’ve lost each of their last seven meetings with Villarreal. In their last meeting, at this same venue, Espanyol were handed a 4-1 beating.
It gets worse when the visitors imagine they haven’t won any of their last six matches. The latest of those saw their Copa journey ended at the first hurdle by lower-tier side Sestao. Espanyol twice led in the game before being handed a 4-3 defeat.

Our Villarreal vs Espanyol Prediction
Espanyol aren’t having the best of campaigns so far but one thing we can’t take from them is their scoring consistency. They’ve only failed to score once in the last 10 league games and have averaged 1.2 goals per match in La Liga.
This run should see them trouble Villarreal, who have conceded an average 1.4 goals per game. Villarreal, however, come here as the most likely winners so we are looking at a possibly high-scoring match. Our prediction for Villarreal v Espanyol is for Villarreal to win + BTTS.
