Valencia vs Espanyol: Preview, Prediction & Betting Tips.

This betting preview contains recent form, possible lineups, injury news, match predictions and betting tips for Valencia vs Espanyol.

Fixture: Valencia vs Espanyol League: La Liga Venue: Mestalla Stadium Date: Sunday 15th January Kick-off: 11:00am GMT

Betting Preview:

After the immediate and unexpected departure of Cesare Prandelli, Valencia find themselves in a free-fall. Without a win in 9 games, they have conceded at least a goal in their last 16 games, a staggering fact, also they have lost 57% of their home matches with only 1 win all season. Espanyol on the other hand, have only 1 defeat in their last 12 games - they find themselves in a healthy 11th place in the La Liga table. They're only issue is trying to turn their draws into wins but Quique Sanchez Flores can take heart from his team's performances this season.

Match Prediction:

Considering the current state that Valencia are in, you wouldn't bet against an Espanyol grabbing the three points. They are high on confidence having lost only once in 12 games and we think there's a decent chance that they will upset the odds and take advantage of Valencia's struggles.
