Sevilla returned to winning ways with a 1-0 victory over Real Sociedad last weekend. With only four matches remaining, the Andalusian side are just one point above the relegation zone.
Interestingly, Sevilla will surpass their visitors on the La Liga table if they win this match. They have won their last two home games and have not lost to Espanyol at this stadium since January 2011.
| 🔍 Whispers Insight |
| No team has conceded more goals than Sevilla in La Liga this season. |
Marcao, who has not featured for the hosts in five months due to injury, remains questionable for this game. The Brazilian defender had undergone successful surgery to repair a scaphoid fracture in his left foot and has been in the recovery phase, but his return to action is still uncertain.
Besides Marcao’s injury situation, Sevilla have a clean bill of health, but former Chelsea defender Cesar Azpilicueta will have to be careful on Saturday, with the Spaniard just a booking away from suspension.
Espanyol's struggles continued with a 2-0 home defeat against Real Madrid last weekend. Their run of 17 consecutive matches without a win has seen them drop from fifth to 13th.
The visitors are now three points above the relegation zone, and with only four matches left to play, they will need to halt their unwanted streak if they intend to remain in the top flight next season.
| 🔍 Whispers Insight |
| Only one team has been awarded more yellow cards than Sevilla in the Spanish top flight. |
Cyril Ngonge, who missed last weekend's defeat to Real Madrid due to a left knee contusion injury is still sidelined for this encounter.
However, Pol Lozano is available for selection after serving a one-game suspension due to a red card.

Whispers Predicts: Sevilla 1-0 Espanyol
At 2.10, Sevilla are considered favourites by the bookmakers.
Keeping in mind that Espanyol suffered 10 defeats in their last 13 trips to this stadium, we are confident that Sevilla will claim all the spoils after 90 minutes.
It is also worth mentioning that Espanyol have struggled in front of goal, scoring only once in their last five matches.
On that note, we fancy Sevilla to win-to-nil at 3.25.
