Match preview

Espanyol welcome Sevilla to the RCDE Stadium for matchday four of La Liga, looking to halt a two-game skid. The hosts opened their campaign with a convincing 3-0 home win over Levante but subsequent 2-1 defeats against Real Madrid and Real Sociedad have halted their early momentum. Roberto Fernandez has been clinical in front of goal with three strikes, but absences to key contributors could challenge Espanyol's attacking depth.

Sevilla travel with six points from their opening three league fixtures, highlighted by an impressive 3-1 away victory against Athletic Club. While a 3-1 home loss to Atletico Madrid last time out showed vulnerability at the back, Sevilla have found the net in every fixture so far, scoring six goals across three matches.

Historically, Sevilla have enjoyed the upper hand in this fixture, taking six victories and three draws from their last ten encounters against Espanyol. With both sides consistently finding the net this season and Sevilla showing strong road form, the visitors are positioned well to come away with a positive result.

Key factors

Sevilla have avoided defeat in nine of their last ten meetings against Espanyol, winning six times.

Sevilla hold a strong historical record in this matchup, avoiding defeat in nine of their last ten head-to-head fixtures against Espanyol with six victories. Sevilla have been potent going forward, scoring six goals in three league outings including a 3-1 away win at Athletic Club. Espanyol are coming off back-to-back 2-1 defeats against Real Madrid and Real Sociedad, and are missing key options in J. Puado and B. Zaragoza due to knee injuries.
