Spain - LaLiga

The Spanish top division is back on the menu this weekend, and those looking to sample the delights of LaLiga will be treated to four courses, one of which involves a fixture at RCDE Stadium, where Espanyol and Atletico Madrid go up against each other. For much of the campaign, the hosts were struggling, but they've pulled their socks up of late and have climbed the table, though there's still work to be done, with just point separating Manolo Gonzalez's men in 15th and Leganes in 18th. In other words, they need to continue picking up points if they want to ensure that their safety remains in their own hands.
For Saturday's visitors, it's a very different fight. As things stand, Diego Simeone's men are in third position, four points behind league leaders Barcelona, so it is fair to say that they are involved in the battle for the LaLiga title. Win here and they'll remain in that battle, but if they lose, their task over the remaining nine games will be a tough one.

Our Espanyol vs Atletico Madrid Prediction
We know that the hosts can score goals at home, they've proved that on several occasions in recent times, scoring against even the top teams such as Bilbao and Real Madrid. Unfortunately for them, they've kept few clean sheets, as the stats above suggest. With Atletico both scoring and conceding with regularity on the road, 'Both Teams to Score' looks a little generously priced at odds of +120. Our Espanyol vs Atletico Madrid Pick: Both Teams to Score.
