CSKA Moscow - Espanyol Prediction, Picks and Tips
The leader of the Russian league, CSKA Moscow, was humiliated on the first date of Group H of the Europa League, 5-1 as a visitor of the Bulgarian Ludogorets. He even went to the break with the advantage in his favor but trying to take care of it was counterproductive and in the first 25 minutes of the complementary stage they were scored five times. After that fall they achieved two consecutive wins in their local league to take first place.
Consider that it is a team accustomed to playing final stages of UEFA tournaments and that at home it becomes strong. Espanyol, on the other hand, has reappeared in European competitions after 12 years and this Europa League started it from the previous second stage leaving lower level rivals on the road. He debuted in this group at home against the Hungarian champion (1-1). He currently occupies the relegation zone in the Spanish league where he has just scored 3 goals in 7 dates.
CSKA has won 6 of its last 7 commitments (only lost its match for Europa League). Espanyol have only won 1 of their last 8 commitments, in addition to 4 draws and 3 losses. Last year CSKA Moscow faced Real Madrid twice for the Champions League and won both duels. Facundo Ferreyra, scorer for Espanyol, is still on leave due to injury.
