Copa del Rey: RCD Espanyol vs FC Barcelona: Match Preview

A preview of Barcelona's rather pointless Catalan derby clash with RCD Espanyol at the Estadi Cornella-El Prat

With a three goal aggregate lead to their name, FC Barcelona merely need to avoid catastrophe to book their place in the 2015-16 Copa del Rey quarter-finals tomorrow when they travel across town to take on RCD Espanyol at the Estadi Cornella-El Prat. The last time these two sides met created some controversy to say the least, with the Blaugrana’s star striker, Luis Suarez, being banned for two matches in his role in the post-match fall-out. Ideally, both sides will be hoping for an incident-free affair tomorrow night.
