Espanyol take on the visitors Celta Vigo at “Estadi Cornella-El Prat” in the matchday four of the Spanish LaLiga. The game will be played in Barcelona on Monday, September 18th.
Espanyol took unsuccessful start in this season, having managed to gain only one point in three clashes. In the first round “Periquitos” have got 1:1 draw against Sevilla and followed it with two back-to-back defeats to Leganes 0:1 and Barcelona 0:5. The Catalans’ series without scored goals has reached 235 minutes of football. At the moment Espanyol sit on the 18th position in the table with one point earned and 1-7 goal difference. “Periquitos” come up to their head-to-head vs. Celta Vigo with four-match losing streak with 0:6 goal difference at the home field, having scored last time in face of their supporters on the 8th of April.

Celta Vigo have been broken in two opening gameweeks of new season’s LaLiga by Real Sociedad 2:3 and Betis 1:2 while they took their first victory just in the third round against Alaves with 1:0 scoreline. The team settles on the 13th place in the elite division standings with three points earned and 4-5 goal difference. Celta Vigo’s weak spot is their performance on the road: taking into account last season, the club has not been able to win in six consecutive clashes at away turfs since the 16th of April, having got two draws and four losses during that run.
Celta Vigo have not been defeated by Espanyol in last five head-to-heads, having taken three triumphs and two draws in them. This season the both rivals haven’t show spectacular football yet. Therefore, I do not expect them to combine a number of goals in the upcoming encounter as well.
Prediction for the match: Under 3.0 scored goals.
