ESL vs ATH Dream11: Espanyol will have another opportunity to breathe new life into their La Liga season when they play host to Athletic Bilbao at Cornellà-El Prat, on Saturday evening (IST). The Catalonia team is enduring through a torrid time in La Liga this season. It’s not an exaggeration but nobody has seen them struggling this much as they prop up the table.

That said, Espanyol have given themselves a platform to launch the project for saving the season, as they picked up the win in the last round, and have four points in the last two games.

Athletic Bilbao will also be eying the win to snap their own four0game winless run, having drawn the last four games. That run of the result have seen them tumbling down the table, and behind the Champions League race. Bilbao are are 8th on the table, five points behind fourth-placed Sevilla.
