CD Lugo

DLLLDL 📉

CD Lugo will be wanting a better result here after the 2-0 La Liga 2 defeat last time out to Granada.

In that match, CD Lugo had 47% possession and 7 attempts at goal with 0 of them on target. At the other end, Granada had 17 shots on goal with 9 of them on target. Antonio Puertas (17') and Bryan Zaragoza (21') scored for Granada.

It’s been a rare occasion in recent times that CD Lugo have kept a clean sheet. The reality is that CD Lugo have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous 6 matches, giving up 11 goals during that time. Let’s see if that trend will end up being continued on here.

A look at their previous results shows us that CD Lugo:

• have not registered a win against SD Huesca in their last 2 league matches.
• are without a win at home for the past 9 league games. They will be so desperate to end this run.

SD Huesca

In their last game, SD Huesca drew 1-1 in the La Liga 2 tie with Ponferradina.

In that game, SD Huesca had 45% possession and 13 shots at goal with 4 on target. The scorer for SD Huesca was Javi Martínez (69'). For their opponents, Ponferradina got 7 shots on goal with 3 on target. Álex Díez (75') scored for Ponferradina.

The stats tell the story, and SD Huesca have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 matches, seeing their opponents hit 6 goals in all. In defence, SD Huesca have seen their frailties exposed.

Analysis of their past results shows that SD Huesca:

• haven't won against CD Lugo in away games against them for the last 2 matches in the league.
• are without an away win for the past 15 league games. They clearly need to do something about it.

🗞️ Team News: CD Lugo

Joselu Moreno (Knee Problems) and Bruno Pirri (Patella rupture) will not be taking part for CD Lugo manager Iñigo Vélez.

It seems likely that Luguiño should use the 5-3-2 system for this game with Patrick Sequeira, Miguel Loureiro, Alberto Rodríguez, Aleksandar Pantic, Xavier Torres, Andoni López, Juanpe, Marc Carbó, Josep Señe, Javier Avilés and Sebastian Moyano.

📋 Team News: SD Huesca

Due to a fully healthy group ready to go, the SD Huesca boss José Ziganda has no fitness worries to speak of before this match.

We believe Oscenses seem most likely to play in a 5-4-1 system, choosing Andres Fernandez, Juanjo Nieto, Rubén Pulido, Jérémy Blasco, Florian Miguel, Ignasi Vilarrasa, Patrick Soko, Cristian Salvador, Kento Hashimoto, Javi Martinez and Aboubakary Kanté.

🧠 Prediction

Here is a game where CD Lugo could find themselves up against it to score goals against this SD Huesca lineup who we reckon will win and very possibly keep a clean sheet.

We therefore fancy a very competitive encounter with a 0-1 win for SD Huesca at the end of the match.

Will be interesting to see how this one goes.
