Hello everyone, I believe in a win for the visitors from Madrid here.
After three rounds, there is no team in LaLiga with a 100% points record. In the last game before the national matches break, Atlético could have taken the lead in the league after two previous wins (Celta 2-1, Elche 1-0), but they had to be glad for a point in the home game against Villarreal, when the final 2:2 was equalised in the fifth minute by an unlucky own goal from the guest Aissa Mandi.
After three matches, six teams are now on seven points. But Espanyol are definitely not one of them. In fact, they have failed to score a single goal in their opening three games. After two goalless draws (Osasuna away, Villarreal at home), it lost 0-1 in Mallorca before the national break. With an impotent offense so far, the home team will be an underdog against Atlético, as the visitors have long been one of the best defending teams not only in LaLiga, but also in Europe.
Atletico is my bet.
