Still out for Sevilla clash
Ngonge (knee) remains unavailable and is ruled out of Saturday's clash against Sevilla, according to coach Manolo Gonzalez. "Only Ngonge is out for the game."
Analysis: Ngonge had missed Sunday's defeat against Real Madrid with a left knee contusion and has been unable to recover in time for the weekend fixture. Ruben Sanchez is expected to continue covering on the right wing in his absence as Espanyol push through the final fixtures of what has been a difficult survival battle season.
Knee contusion rules him out
Ngonge missed Sunday's 2-0 defeat against Real Madrid after picking up a contusion on his left knee during Saturday's training session, according to La Grada.
Analysis: Ngonge had arrived in the winter window as Espanyol's only January reinforcement and his absence was an untimely blow for a side still fighting to secure their top-flight status. Ruben Sanchez stepped in to cover on the right wing against Real Madrid and is expected to hold that role until Ngonge is cleared to return, with the club monitoring his knee over the coming days before setting any return timeline for the Belgian attacker.
