Match Facts:Real Sociedad (9th, 3 pts): 

- La Real recorded their maiden victory of the season last matchday against At. Osasuna and now are hoping to build on it.

- The head-to-head stats make positive reading for Eusebio Sacristan's side. The Basques have only lost two of their last seven LaLiga meetings with Espanyol, winning four and drawing one.

Espanyol (17th, 1 pt): 

- The Catalans are itching to get a first win of the campaign under their belt after the heartbreak of conceding a last-gasp equaliser against Malaga CF last time out.

- Pericos boss Quique Sanchez Flores can take heart from the striking exploits of Gerard Moreno, who sits joint-top of the LaLiga Santander scoring charts. The forward was on target at Anoeta for the first time last term and will fancy himself to repeat the feat on Friday evening.
