In 2023, both teams were relegated together, and a year later they returned together to La Liga. Last season they played a total of three times against each other and Valladolid could not secure a single victory. At least at home, they are unbeaten against Espanyol in their last 11 home matches in the league against them.
Espanyol reached La Liga through the playoffs and won a final against Oviedo. They reached promotion mainly thanks to their strong home performances. As a guest, they had quite a few draws in the end, and seven of their last eight visits ended with under 1.5 goals.
Prediction: under 2.5 goalsI believe there will not be many goals in this match between the two teams that quickly returned to the elite.
