Oviedo will host Espanyol on Friday as La Liga returns after the international break.

In its first La Liga season since 2000-01, Oviedo is battling relegation as it enters the match in 17th place, one spot above the bottom three.

Oviedo is already on its second coach of the season, with Veljko Paunović sacked following the club's most recent match and former boss Luis Carrión returning last week.

Espanyol is off to a decent, if underwhelming start to the campaign, coming into the game in ninth place with 12 points from its first eight matches.

Looking to improve on last season's 14th-place finish, Espanyol will see Friday's match at a great opportunity to pick up three points on the road.
