Will Tani Oluwaseyi’s goalscoring form continue as Villarreal face Espanyol?

Villarreal CF prepare to host RCD Espanyol in La Liga action on Friday at Estadio de la Cerámica, with Canadian striker Tani Oluwaseyi entering the match in strong form. Oluwaseyi has scored two goals in his last three matches and three in his last five across all competitions, including a 26th-minute strike in Villarreal's 5-0 Copa del Rey win over CD Manacor on Tuesday.

Villarreal enter the fixture unbeaten in two league games, having defeated Valencia 2-1 on Saturday following a scoreless draw with Elche. Meanwhile, Espanyol arrive winless in six matches across all competitions, having recently dismissed head coach Manolo Gonzalez following a 4-3 Copa del Rey defeat to fourth-tier Sestao and appointing Eder Sarabia as his replacement.
