Otherwise, these two teams would be fighting for a European ticket at this time, but this target only applies to Espanyol. The Catalan team chases 7 and Athletic Bilbao, of which 4 points are less. The Basque are playing at Madrid at the same time against Leganes.
In Levante, Espanyol was twice ahead without being able to leave with three points. The home team fought for survival and gave its battle with the final 2-2 leaving mixed feelings. Tonight, Espanyol will again have a team that is also fighting to be kept in the category. Thelta is living her own nightmare this year but Iago Aspas has taken her by the hand trying to get her out of the swamp and while she is playing in Balaidos she succeeds. Three consecutive victories at home but still everything is fluid having a degree difference from the 18th Levante. She was spoiled by yesterday's victory of Valladolid that reached 35 points and tonight she will have to look much more serious defensively if she wants to leave with a result as she constantly concedes goals and Espanyol almost always scores.
Goal is easy to find and Celta will not be a game that will be left to scratch. But I think Celta will be able to get away with the degree of how much Espanyol wants to play European. Her program is not easy and Celta has just as much, not to say a stronger motivation. You do not want to miss today, one more one goes to Leganis seat and then you welcome Barcelona. Margins do not exist.
