Real Oviedo: Team Analysis

The newly promoted side continues to face significant challenges, currently occupying a relegation spot. In their last league outing, Real Oviedo was involved in a thrilling away game against Girona. While they let a two-goal lead slip and nearly lost, Luis Carrión’s squad demonstrated resilience by securing a draw in the 97th minute. This hard-fought point is crucial in their battle to avoid relegation, preventing a direct rival from increasing their lead. Despite this, their league standing remains precarious. Real Oviedo sits 19th in the standings, ahead of only Girona on tie-breakers. Even after netting 3 goals in their most recent match, the club still holds the record for the lowest goal tally in this season, with a mere 7 goals in total.

Osasuna: Team Analysis

Alessio Lisci’s team also risks dropping into the bottom three of the championship. After losing to Celta in the last round, Osasuna suffered two consecutive defeats for the first time this season. In their last 6 matches, the club has managed only 1 win and collected just 4 points, which are the worst figures in the tournament alongside Real Oviedo. Due to these unconvincing results, the Pamplona side is in 15th place in the table, with only one point separating them from the relegation zone.

Match Prediction: Real Oviedo vs Osasuna

This match features two struggling teams, both notable for their low attacking output. Real Oviedo scores less frequently than any other team in , with a total of only 7 goals this season. At home, despite crowd support, the club’s performance has been modest, scoring only 2 goals in 5 matches in front of their fans, which is also the worst record in the tournament.

Osasuna generally looks a bit livelier, but not when playing away.
