Valencia – Espanyol Preview: Latest News, Form, and Predicted Lineups:
Read all the latest information and injury updates for this game here, including the most likely Valencia vs Espanyol predictions:
Valencia
Just like they did for the most of the last season, Valencia looks pretty inconsistent at the start of the new season in La Liga. After the first six rounds, the Bats have three wins and three losses, which puts them in the ninth spot in the standings at the moment. While that's not a bad start, Valencia fans are probably hoping for more after years of mediocrity.
When it comes to team news, Valencia is in pretty good shape right now since only Jaume Domenech is currently on their injury list.
Valencia Predicted Lineup:
Mamardashvili – Correia, Diakhaby, Paulista, Gaya – Guerra, Nico – Lopez, Almeida, Kluivert – Cavani
Espanyol
With just four points from the first six games in La Liga, Espanyol is currently one spot above the relegation zone and their fans are certainly worried about their team. However, it's still way to early to draw any conclusions about the future and Espanyol can turn things around with a couple of good results at the moment.
Meanwhile, Espanyol is currently without Ruben Sanchez, Jose Carlos Lazo, and Adria Pedrosa through injuries.
Espanyol Predicted Lineup:
Pacheco – Gil, Montes, Calero, Cabrera, Olivan – Melamed, Souza, Darder – Braithwaite, Joselu
Starting Lineups
Teams will often release their lineups around one hour before the kickoff.

Player to Watch: Edison Cavani
Since we expect Valencia to win this game, our player to watch is their experienced striker Edison Cavani, who has the quality to bring the three points to the Bats.
The Uruguayan scored five goals this season for Valencia and added a couple of assists as well in La Liga, so Espanyol should keep a close eye on Cavani in their upcoming duel.
