3rd position in the Segunda B - Group 3 table for Espanyol II so far, a good performance. The home supporters hope for more joy as 8th-placed Llagostera-Costa Brava visits Camp de la Ciutat Esportiva del RCD Espanyol.

There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Copa Del Rey game only three days ago.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Llagostera-Costa Brava have a different surface at their stadium (artificial turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 5-9-9 (win-draw-loss) from 23 matches.
