March has been a month of rebirth for Espanyol, synonymous with shelving the open crisis and once again looking upwards with ambition. One of the keys to understanding the recent good times is that in the last three games (Getafe, Levante and Mallorca), Vicente Moreno’s team has bolted on goal, conceding just one goal against teams in his ‘league’. They beat Getafe 2-0, drew 1-1 against Levante and beat Mallorca (1-0), adding seven of the 9 points in dispute, a mattress which already allows us to speak of virtual permanence.
Pragmatism and return to the origins. Espanyol has recovered its defensive solidity, one of its hallmarks in the league start but that he lost at the beginning of 2022 to forget. Luckily for Espanyolismo, the team is strong again at the back and without having made many adjustments, highlighting only the entry of Calero by Sergi Gómez.
Locking the goal, solidity at the back, fewer turnovers and a sweet moment of Sergi Darder and De Tomas, the ingredients that have cooked a month of resurrection March.

After the break due to the commitments of the national teams, Espanyol will resume the League on Monday, April 4 at Anoeta, a difficult fight against Real Sociedad. Vicente Moreno’s speech and of several of its players in recent days has been tinged with ambition and trying to fight for higher levels in this final stretch of the championship. To think big, it will be vital to maintain this defensive solidity in an intense month of April, with two complicated trips to Anoeta and the Wanda Metropolitano, receiving Celta and Rayo Vallecano at home. Locking Diego López’s goal will once again be a priority to dream of sneaking into the elite in the final fight.
