Espanyol vs Real Madrid Betting Tips

Bet on Real Madrid to win 

They were stuttering at the start of the season but Real are now back on top of the La Liga standings and lead second place Atletico by four points. It’s a good situation for Los Blancos as they are helped by their arch-rivals Barcelona also struggling right now. The Blaugrana had a runaway lead in the league a few months ago but now find themselves just fighting to ensure that they qualify for next season’s Champions League. 

Madrid have been in brilliant form recently and to add to their positives, Kylian Mbappe has started to find form. The Frenchman initially struggled in the early parts of the season but now appears to be scoring goals for fun. The 2018 World Cup winner will cause massive problems for relegation threatened Espanyol in this game and there is every chance that he will add to his goals tally in this game. 

Bet on Real Madrid to win 3-0 

Madrid will dominate this clash from start to finish and go on to claim a convincing win. They are better than Espanyol in all areas of the technical aspects of the game and also enter this game high in confidence. Fresh after scoring his first hat-rick for Madrid, Mbappe will be fired up for this game and if he is on song, he should notch at least one goal against struggling Espanyol as their defence struggles to cope with his pace and positioning. 

Bet on only Madrid to score 

Espanyol will struggle to move the ball forward and the vast majority of this game will be spent in their half. Madrid will look to make this an easy win and a statement win to prove to title rivals like Atletico and Barcelona that they mean business as we approach the latter stages of this season.
