Team Analysis
Espanyol has achieved a record of 2 wins, 1 draw, and 3 losses in the new season, placing them 13th in La Liga. As a newly promoted team, their overall performance isn't too bad, especially at home where they have 2 wins and 1 loss, showing much stronger attacking power compared to their away games. In their last match, they suffered a heavy 4-1 defeat against Real Madrid, but they have managed to score in three consecutive matches, indicating a solid attacking front.

Villarreal has also performed well this season, with a record of 3 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss, currently sitting 6th in La Liga. However, they faced their first defeat of the season in their last match, losing 1-5 to Barcelona, breaking their unbeaten streak of five matches. Villarreal's away performance has been decent, with 4 wins, 4 draws, and 2 losses in their last 10 away games, showcasing their ability to earn points.

Odds Analysis
Currently, the momentum slightly favors Villarreal, but the advantage is not substantial. They have demonstrated impressive attacking capabilities this season, although their defense has been disappointing. They remain in a favorable competitive position and will likely be motivated. Espanyol, on the other hand, exhibits a strong home performance but has struggled against Villarreal in their last three encounters, putting them at a psychological disadvantage. However, with a relatively favorable schedule, they are expected to pose challenges for Villarreal upon returning home.

Pick: Espanyol
