Preview
Getafe’s quest for a first league win continued as they drew 1-1 away against Granada on Thursday.
Unal gave Getafe the lead before a late equalizer from Molina ensured the wait continued for the visitors as both sides shared the points.
This was Getafe’s third draw in the last 5 matches leaving them last in the table with 3 points from 11 matches; hoping for a massive turnaround.
On the other hand, Espanyol played out a 1-1 home draw against Athletic Club in their previous outing as well.
De Tomas scored the opener for the hosts before Williams equalized in the second half, which ensured a point a piece.
This left Espanyol in 11th place with 14 points from 11 matches.
Espanyol is yet to win an away match this season and this could just be the chance for them to begin their endeavours away from home.
Both sides last met in the La Liga in June 2020, where it finished goalless.

Prediction: Getafe 0-2 Espanyol
The hosts have been poor this season due to which they are stuck at the bottom of the table.
Espanyol’s recent results and performances haven’t been the best but enough to get the job done.
With the visitors in better form, we expect them to win their first away match of the season.
Players to watch out for: Mata, Unal, Melendo and Dimata.
