FC Barcelona - Espanyol prediction

Details:

Barcelona headed into the break for the World Cup in sterling form, having won four games in a row and moved into pole position in the La Liga title race.
Xavi’s outfit have been particularly brilliant at Camp Nou, where they have won six of their seven league matches, five of them by at least a two goal cushion.
Indeed, they are yet to even conceded a home La Liga goal this season, while eight of their 14 La Liga outings at all venues have been won by two goals or more.
Barcelona are still unbeaten at home this season of La Liga with a 17-0 goal difference.

For Espanyol, this derby match feels like a crucial game as they look to kick-start a floundering campaign that sees them very much in the relegation battle.
Diego Martínez’s side have still won just once in the road, losing twice and picking up four draws, while they have also managed only one victory in their last ten La Liga outings at all venues.
They do tend to keep games tight, with only two of their defeats by a two or more goal margin, but they have netted just eight times on the road – that won’t give them much confidence when heading to Barcelona.
