RCD Espanyol vs Ludogorets Razgrad
Espanyol was overshadowed by poor results in local competitions before meeting Ludogorets Razgrad. They met in the fourth week of the Europa League which was planned to be held at the Estadio Cornella El Prat. The host is trying to stop the bad trends in tomorrow’s match.
Yes, Espanyol actually lost the rhythm before the match later due to losing streaks from Ath Bilbao (3-0) and Valencia (1-2). As a result, they did not move from the red zone sequence 19 of La Liga.
Despite the poor results, they instead became the king of Group H after a draw with Ferencvaros (1-1), then won over CSKA Moscow (0-2), and Ludogorets Razgrad (0-1). This achievement makes Espanyol still counted despite appearing so ugly in local competitions.
Furthermore, they must defend that position from the threat of Ludogorets Razgrad who currently cling tight to the difference of one point in runner-up position. The visitors will try their best to avenge yesterday’s defeat, moreover they have risen in the local league by beating Tsarsko Selo Sofia (0-2) and Beroe (3-1).
Such a contrasting trend will make the game run interesting later. Espanyol in theory will appear under pressure, but Cornella’s public support will be able to alleviate the problem. Next, they had to repeat last month’s performance when they managed to humiliate Ludogorets Razgrad at home.
