Mirandés will hope to utilise their home advantage to help bridge the gap to today’s opponents. The home side are currently 14 points behind Espanyol.
- Espanyol have scored at least twice as many goals as they have conceded.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
