Real Oviedo

DLWDWD

Real Oviedo enter this game following on from a 0-0 La Liga 2 drawn game against Córdoba CF.

In that match, Real Oviedo had 32% possession and 8 attempts at goal with 1 of them on target. Cordoba got 18 shots on goal with 4 of them on target.

Their most recent results really do illustrate the point that quality has been evident in the Real Oviedo rearguard. Real Oviedo have been stingy, seeing the number of goals that have gone past their goalkeeper over the course of their previous 6 matches standing at 4.

Leading up to this clash, Real Oviedo:

• remain undefeated by Levante when playing them at home in the previous 3 league matches.
• haven't lost in the league to Levante in their last 3 games.
• are unbeaten in their last 3 league matches at home.

Levante

WWLWDW

Levante come into this meeting after a 5-2 La Liga 2 win in the defeat of Real Zaragoza in their last fixture.

In that game, Levante managed 48% possession and 15 attempts at goal with 7 on target. For Levante, the goals were scored by Carlos Álvarez (6'), Álex Forés (12'), José Luis Morales (50'), Carlos Espí (85') and Iván Romero (92'). At the other end, Real Zaragoza got 17 shots at goal with 4 of them on target. Pau Sans (89') and Mario Soberón (93') scored for Real Zaragoza.

Levante have been effective going forward in their most recent fixtures, having scored 15 goals in their previous 6 matches. While their manager Julián Calero will no doubt take that as a positive sign, Levante can also improve defensively after being scored against in 6 of those same clashes. We shall soon see if that trend will end up being sustained into this next match.

ℹ️ Team News: Real Oviedo

We think that Carbayones will possibly use a 4-4-2 system for the game featuring Aaron Escandell, Nacho Vidal, David Costas, Dani Calvo, Rahim Alhassane, Haissem Hassan, Kwasi Sibo, Santiago Colombatto, Jaime Seoane, Francisco Portillo and Federico Vinas.

📰 Team News: Levante

Thanks to a largely healthy group of players, there is only the lone fitness issue for the Levante manager Julián Calero to be concerned with. Ángel Algobia (unknown injury) won’t be playing here.

We’re of the thinking that Levante might begin the game with a 4-3-3 lineup using Andres Fernandez, Xavi Grande, Adrian De La Fuente, Ignasi Miquel, Diego Pampin, Giorgi Kochorashvili, Vicente Iborra, Oriol Rey, Carlos Alvarez, Roger Brugue and Jose Luis Morales.

⚡ Prediction

We’re thinking that Levante will do well to see themselves scoring against this Real Oviedo side who we reckon will score at least once to gain the upper hand.

We therefore think that it’s going to be a very competitive encounter with a 1-0 win for Real Oviedo when the full-time whistle blows.

Let’s see.
