Too far from the European squares, far from maintaining, Espanyol and Las Palmas will have to find elsewhere the source of motivation necessary to win this meeting. Respectively 9th and 12th, both clubs are stuck in the soft belly of the La Liga but have at least the merit of offering games to show for a few weeks. Las Palmas had a 5-2 victory against Osasuna, a poor red lantern, who had almost achieved the feat last night by leading 3-1 at Santiago Bernabeu against Real Madrid 5 minutes from the end. But it was not counting on a double of Cristiano Ronaldo to bring the score to 3 everywhere. To see if the Espanyol, who has scored 3 goals at home in 4 of his last 8 games at the RCDE Stadium, will be able to do better than the Madrienes!
