However, the White and Blues are undefeated in their last 10 matches in La Liga having recorded three draws and seven wins at the Reale Arena.
 
"I think we did not deserve to lose and that we did many things well," Soecidad manager Imanol Alguacil said as he reacted to their defeat to Espanyol.
 
"But if you do not finish correctly, what happened could happen to you. This team creates chances and has players to score a goal, but we are not at our best at the moment. 
 
"Sometimes we rush, sometimes we are not aggressive, sometimes we fail in the last pass ... This team creates chances and the day will come when we will score them."
