Espanyol vs Barcelona
Barcelona are one win away from claiming the Spanish La Liga title as they travel to Espanyol for the Catalan Derby on Thursday.
The visitors have been the dominant force in the derby and come into this clash in good form. They should once again be too strong for the hosts, who are finding things difficult at the moment.
Espanyol Form
This season appears to be effectively over for Espanyol, who have little to play for at the moment, sitting well clear of the danger zone and not in contention for the European places. They may have an outside chance of securing a top half finish, sitting six points off 10th placed Valencia.
The problem for Espanyol is that they are ending the season with a whimper having lost their last three La Liga matches, falling 3-2 at Leganes last time out. Manolo Gonzalez’s team have fared better at home and are unbeaten in 10 of their last 11 matches in front of their fans. However, they suffered a 2-1 defeat to Real Betis in their previous fixture at RCDE Stadium.
Espanyol have shown some attacking quality lately, scoring in their last nine matches. However, they have failed to keep a clean sheet in the last four matches while the last two fixtures have produced over 2.5 goals.
Barcelona Form
Barcelona come into their derby on a high note after winning yet another El Clasico. They fought back from behind to claim a 4-3 victory, beating Real Madrid for the fourth time this season.
That victory means Barcelona are six points clear at the top of the table and need just one more win to secure the title. Hansi Flick's men are unbeaten in the league in 2025, claiming 14 wins from 16 league matches.
Barcelona are the leading scorers in La Liga and have scored in both halves in four of their last seven matches across all competitions. However, they are without a clean sheet in seven of their last eight matches, all of which have produced over 2.5 goals.
Head to Head
Barcelona often claim the upper hand in this fixture and are unbeaten in 14 of the last 15 matches against Espanyol. The visitors have won the last two meetings, claiming a 4-2 away victory on their last trip to the RCDE Stadium and claiming a 3-1 victory in the reverse fixture back in November.
Verdict
Barcelona have a straightforward task in Thursday's clash as a win secures the La Liga title. They have won their last five La Liga matches and having claimed a win & over 2.5 goals in the last two meetings with Espanyol, should earn a similar result here.
There are often goals in the Catalan Derby and with both teams scoring in the last four meetings, a repeat could be on the cards here. Barcelona are also expected to maintain their run of scoring in both halves having produced a similar pattern in four of their last six matches across all competitions.
