Espanyol will entertain Sevilla at Estadi Cornella-El Prat in La Liga on Saturday. Espanyol recorded their first win of the campaign in their previous outing against Athletic Bilbao, with Martin Braithwaite's 83rd-minute strike enough to secure a 1-0 win.
Sevilla are surprisingly without a win after four games. They have lost three games, including the last two. They are coming off a 3-0 loss at Barcelona on Sunday. The Andalusians kicked off their UEFA Champions League campaign in midweek but succumbed to a 4-0 loss to Manchester City.
