Match Facts

Espanyol (12th, 15 pts):

- After struggling for consistency at the start of the campaign, Los Pericos are now on a six-game unbeaten streak.  The Catalan side have constructed a watertight defence, keeping clean sheets in their last three matches, and find themselves sitting in midtable in LaLiga Santander.

- Boss Quique Flores gave his thoughts to the press ahead of the match: "We really want to win in front of our supporters, regain our competitive edge whilst maintaining our strong points. We have to start scoring more goals, play with a smile on our faces and play without fear."

CD Leganes (15th, 13 pts):

- Leganes have racked up nine points on the road this season and boast the fourth best away record in the division. Only three teams have a better record than Los Pepineros - Real Madrid (16), Barcelona (15) and their opponents tomorrow, Espanyol (11).

- Leganes come into this clash at the RCDE Stadium with a squad beset by injuries, but coach Asier Garitano remains positive: "We aim to keep doing what we've been doing up until now, with players filling in and adapting, but our mentality is the most important factor."
