In the Copa del Rey, Espanyol was knocked out by Barbastro, of the fourth tier, who were eliminated by eventual winners Barcelona in the Round of 32.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Barcelona<\/h3><p>On the other hand, Barcelona was inches away from competing in the UEFA Champions League, but Hansi Flick&rsquo;s men conceded a late goal to Inter, and the Serie A side then punished Barcelona in extra time, eliminating the 2024-25 Copa del Rey winners from the UCL semi-finals. Flick&rsquo;s side is now three points away from winning the 2024-25 La Liga title, and the Blaugrana has the chance to do a domestic double as they already won the Copa del Rey by defeating arch-rivals Real Madrid in the final of the cup competition.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Espanyol vs Barcelona Under\/Over Predictions<\/h2><p>The Playoffs aim to facilitate the safest bets for the game.

With Inigo Martinez set to miss the crucial match, Barcelona&rsquo;s defense would be further weakened against Espanyol and goals are expected to rain in at the RCDE Arena on Thursday evening.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Espanyol vs Barcelona Player Picks<\/h2><p><strong>Raphinha (To Score a Goal @ +120 as per Fan Duel): <\/strong>The leading goalscorer in the 2024-25 UEFA Champions League, Raphinha scored a brace in Barcelona&rsquo;s most crucial La Liga match of the season as the Brazilian forward netted twice against Real Madrid on the weekend to complete the perfect comeback for Flick&rsquo;s side and put the match beyond their arch-rivals despite Kylian Mbappe completing his hat-trick later in the game.<\/p><p><strong>Robert Lewandowski (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.az.betmgm.com\/en\/sports\/events\/espanyol-barcelona-fc-barcelona-2:7610639?tab=score\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>To Score a Goal @-145 as per Bet MGM<\/a>): <\/strong>Robert Lewandowski has scored 25 goals in 31 league matches, apart from contributing 2 assists, and the Polish striker would be eager to add to those numbers with Kylian Mbappe overtaking the former Bayern Munich striker in the La Liga Golden Boot race courtesy of his hat-trick against Barcelona last weekend.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Espanyol vs Barcelona Prediction<\/h2><p>The hosts for Thursday evening&rsquo;s fixture are on a winless run of 27 matches against their local rivals in the league, an ongoing record for the longest winless streak in a regional derby in La Liga.
