Espanyol will be without midfielders Pol Lozano and Jose Gragera for the upcoming match, with Lozano suspended and Gragera injured. Gragera is expected to return in January. Alex Kral, after partnering Lozano against Osasuna, could be joined by youngster Rafael Bauza next Wednesday.
In addition, Espanyol's defense is also missing center-back Marash Kumbulla due to suspension, and coach Gonzalez can bring in Leandro Cabrera and Sergi Gomez to replace him.
Valencia have lost defender Thierry Correia for the rest of the season due to a cruciate ligament injury suffered in early November, while Jose Gaya will not be available until January. Centre-back Mouctar Diakhaby remains a doubt, and goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili will be out until the end of December. Baraja is likely to use Dimitri Foulquier, Cesar Tarrega, Cristhian Mosquera and Jesus Vazquez in defence, with Stole Dimitrievski in goal.
In midfield, Pepelu and Javier Guerra will combine to support the striker duo Diego Lopez and Hugo Duro.

Latest football commentary on Espanyol vs Valencia
The match between Espanyol and Osasuna was quite dull as both teams failed to create any clear-cut chances. However, coach Manolo Gonzalez could still feel satisfied that his team's goalkeeper did not have to make any saves.

Espanyol have struggled to keep clean sheets, failing to keep opponents from scoring in five consecutive games and keeping just three clean sheets in 18 games this season. Despite scoring 15 goals, the Catalans have conceded 28, making them the fourth-worst attacking team and the second-worst defensive team in La Liga.
However, Espanyol have improved their points tally, picking up four points from their last three games, after a run of seven defeats in their previous eight. Their home form has also provided some hope, with four wins from their last seven games at RCDE Stadium, drawing one and losing just two.
Valencia were disappointed by their defeat to Real Valladolid, who conceded the only goal of the game from a shot on target in the 20th minute and failed to capitalise on their man advantage in the final 12 minutes. Although Valencia have not been relegated since 1986-87, their current form has them on track for just 25 points, their worst finish since relegation at the end of 1985-86.
Under coach Ruben Baraja, Valencia have the third-worst attack in La Liga, with just 13 goals scored. However, their defence is ranked seventh for goals conceded, conceding an average of 1.5 goals per game. Valencia have won three of their last six games in all competitions, but have lost two in a row recently. In La Liga, they have lost three in a row and won just one of their last nine. Valencia's away form, in particular, is a serious problem, with eight losses and three draws in their last 11 away games in La Liga.
