Espanyol will be aiming to continue their impressive start to the 2025-26 La Liga campaign when they welcome Mallorca to RCDE Stadium on Monday night.
The hosts have picked up seven points from their first three matches of the season to sit sixth in the La Liga table, while the visitors are down in 18th, picking up just one point from their opening three games.
Espanyol opened their season with an excellent result, beating Atletico Madrid 2-1 on home soil, before following that up with a 2-2 draw against Real Sociedad in their second game of the season.
The Catalan giants returned to winning ways on August 31 by beating Osasuna 1-0, so seven points have been secured from three matches, which has left them in sixth spot in the table.
The White and Blues finished 14th in Spain's top flight last season, and it is not impossible to imagine them pushing for a top-half spot, although they have not ended a La Liga campaign in the top half since 2018-19.
Espanyol were incredibly busy during the summer market, making 13 signings in total, while there were also a number of departures, with the biggest of those proving to be Joan Garcia, who joined Barcelona.
