Seeking to snap their nine-match winless run, Granada play host to Elche at the Estadio Nuevo Los Cármenes on Saturday.
The visitors, meanwhile, have lost each of their last two games and will be looking to end this dry spell.
Granada failed to find their feet last weekend as they fell to a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Valencia.
They have now failed to taste victory in any of their last nine league outings, picking up three points from their last 27 available.
This poor run has seen them drop to 17th place in the La Liga table with 25 points from 27 games, one point above Cadiz in the relegation zone.
Meanwhile, Elche were condemned to a second straight defeat last time out as they lost 2-1 to a rejuvenated Barcelona side.
They have now lost three of their last four outings, with a 2-1 win over Rayo Vallecano on February 18 being the only exception.
With 29 points from 27 games, Elche are currently 14th on the log, but could move level on points with Espanyol with all three points on Saturday.
