Manolo González goes back to a back four at El Sardinero

Espanyol visit Racing at El Sardinero this Saturday in a crucial game for both sides, who sit just one point from the relegation zone. The Pericos arrive after four matches without a win, and Manolo González badly needs to win back trust.

The coach returns to a back four, leaving behind the five-man defence seen against Atlético. Fortuño keeps his place in goal, Hartman wins back his starting spot and Cala also starts, according to Mundo Deportivo.

Racing will line up with Agirrezabala in goal and Vicente, Canales and Zabiri up front.
