Prediction: Espanyol 0-3 Real Madrid
Barcelona could not really ask for worse opponents as they look for Real Madrid to stumble, with their local rivals appearing destined for relegation as things stand having won just five league games all season.
This encounter pits LaLiga's worst home team against the division's best travellers, who are hoping to seal a fifth successive post-lockdown victory.
A comfortable away triumph seems inevitable.
