Espanyol hosts Levante in round 30 of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Saturday, June 20th at RCDE Stadium (Barcelona)
Espanyol, which is in the relegation zone, managed to earn only 24 points in 29 rounds, scored 25 goals and conceded 46 times. Things are not going well with the men of Abelardo. Of course, the Catalan club needs to score points and fight for survival because a gap to the saving 17th place is only three points, but will it manage to do it? This is a very controversial and big question. Bookmakers who consider today's hosts as favorites probably think they will be able to. But I think Levante looks much better, so I have doubts that Espanyol will gain more than a draw. After a pause, the Catalans defeated Alaves, played a goalless draw with Getafe in the last round, and lost to Osasuna. Today I expect tight-checking football and a draw with the score a la 0-0 or 1-1.

Levante looks good this season. The team led by Paco Lopez is composed mainly of Spaniards and only extremely necessary and high-quality legionnaires, and it plays rather primitive but fruitful football. The team is on the 12th line, with 35 points in its assets. After the break, Levante played three matches, and they all ended in the same draw (1-1). Why cannot the Frogs continue this trend? Levante is unlikely to gain victory because Espanyol will be very motivated, but I don’t believe in losing of Levante. The most likely outcome is a draw.
The coefficients of bookmakers do not look fair - today's hosts are led as favorites, but I would not be in a hurry to agree with this fact. Two of the last four head-to-head meetings ended in a draw, and Espanyol won twice more. And it’s hard to believe in Levante’s victory, so the X2 bet looks much more reliable than the victory of the hosts. Nevertheless, I’ll try a very risky bet. My choice for this match is a draw.
Prediction for the match: Draw
