Leganes vs Espanyol Prediction & Tips
Leganes are at the bottom of the table and are still struggling to stay in LaLiga. After 34 games, the team has 31 points and is in 19th place, two points behind 18th and four points away from the coveted 17th place. There are still four games left, including this one, so the chances of salvation are still alive. However, recent results are not encouraging. The team has gone eight games without a win, although the three most recent ones ended in draws. But draws are not enough to keep them in the top flight: they need victories.
Espanyol are better positioned in the table than Leganés. The Catalans have 39 points after 34 games, maintaining a seven-point lead over the relegation zone. With four games left to play, Espanyol appear to have all but assured of staying in LaLiga for next season. They are currently on a run of two consecutive defeats, although before that they enjoyed a five-match unbeaten run, including three wins. Thanks to those results, the Catalans managed to pull away from the bottom, although they were also recently fighting to avoid relegation.
