The upcoming match between Leganés and Espanyol appears to be a rather uncertain one based on the current form of both teams. The away team has consistently struggled to score against Borja Jiménez Sáez's team, making a bet on a win for the home team a viable option. Additionally, the away team typically does not face significant pressure from the home crowd.
However, it is worth noting that the home team's defensive line has been in poor form, even when playing at their home stadium. On the other hand, Espanyol's defensive line has also been struggling, especially when playing away from home.
Looking at the recent head-to-head matchups between the two teams, it seems that the upcoming match may not see a high scoring affair, given that the previous encounters have resulted in 2 wins for the home team, 2 draws, and 1 win for the away team.
In terms of goal-scoring, this season Leganés has an average of 0.9 goals scored per match, while Espanyol has an average of 1.1 goals scored per match. These statistics suggest that the match may not see a high number of goals being scored.
Ultimately, the coaching staff of both teams may play a crucial role in determining the outcome of the match. Borja Jiménez Sáez leads Leganés, while José González Álvarez is at the helm of Espanyol. This leadership factor could also impact the tactics and performance of the teams on the field.
Given these factors, the match between Leganés and Espanyol could be a tightly contested affair with a potential for fewer goals compared to previous matchups. While a victory for the home team seems plausible, the away team cannot be discounted entirely, especially considering their ability to overcome challenges on the road.
