Granada CF – Espanyol Prediction & Preview and Betting Tips (19.05.2017)

Prediction for Granada CF – Espanyol

Under 2.5 goals @ 2.12

Match of Day 38 of the Santander League that will face the Granada Fc of Tony Adams, in front of the RCD Espanyol of “Quique” Sánchez Flores in the stage of the New Los Cármenes.

Granada CF

On the one hand comes the Granada, reaching colista to the last day with 20 points, of which has gotten 16 in his stadium (80.0%). Disastrous Andalusian season, from start to finish. And the main problem has come from the management of the club. In more than one match they have ranked 11 players from 11 different nationalities. And when you come up with a project, with a coach like Paco Jémez, and you dismiss him without having just passed 8 days (I speak from memory), something is failing, and above you bring a coach of a totally different style, which will have to adapt To the project designed for another person. As I say, a disaster from the beginning, even though there was a mirage at a time of the season chaining 2 consecutive victories in the Cármenes.

Espanyol

On the other hand comes Espanyol, 10th in the table with 54 points, having achieved 24 playing as a visitor (45.3%). The season of the “parakeets” has been much more regular, and with a clear intention, start forming a long-term project, in which the main protagonist will be Quique SF. Despite having had options to fight for Europa League, Quique always made it clear that it was not a goal that came to mind at any time, since his objectives, as I said before were very long term. In conclusion, it has been a season of transition for the Club, in which it has mattered more to start forming a good base, than the competition itself.

Sincerely, I can not lie, and I do not know what will happen in the 1X2, because although Granada, is a team inferior to Espanyol, I do not rely on the motivation of Espanyol, to win, but I do trust in That maintain their tendencies and be a boring party, without too many occasions, as they are usually the parties of the Catalan ensemble.

The goals scored by both teams (home / away) are as follows:
– Grenada (Local) —> 0.9 (own) // 2.6 (total)
– Grenada (Visitor) —> 1.1 (own) // 2.4 (total)

Both, as I said, have an Under tendency, since the Granada, surely end the season with a lower average to a goal per game as a local, very poor numbers, which are one of the reasons why will play the following season in 2nd division, but neither has been a team that has fit too much (as a local, since as a visitor, if it has received a high average of goals). While Espanyol has had very similar numbers to the Granada, but they have been used to add almost 10 points more, in addition to have added much more locally, logically, otherwise they would not be 10s in the table.

As for the occasions that there have been 3 or more goals by each team (local / visitor), are the following:
– Granada —> 9 Over / 9 Under
– Espanyol —> 6 Over / 12 Under
TOTAL: 15/21 = 58.3%
