Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Estadio Municipal de Malata will host Saturday’s football game between Ferrol and Real Oviedo, the two top-table sides. Ferrol aim to stay in the automatic promotion berth and you should know that they have yet to suffer a loss at home this season. Midfielder David Castro serves a one-game ban due to the accumulation of yellow cards, while both Enrique Clemente and Luca Ferrone are sidelined with injuries.
Los Azulones, on the other hand, aim to move closer to the playoffs berth. Oviedo, though, have been struggling on the travels this term, with the team recording only one away win in the process and that is probably the main reason why home win should be considered. Both Dubasin and Borja Sanchez have joined los Azulones in the January transfer window, but Romario Ibarra and Cardero are no longer part of the team.
Highlighted Team (Oviedo):
Based in Oviedo, Asturias, Real Oviedo is a Spanish club that plays home games at Carlos Tartiere. Carlos Tartiere is one of the biggest stadiums in Segunda division as it can hold up to 30,500 spectators. Los Azules competed in La Liga in the 1990s, but in the 2001/02 campaign they suffered relegation to Segunda Division.
Real Oviedo have not competed in the Spanish top flight ever since. In the 1991/92 season los Azules represented Spain in the UEFA Cup, but Genoa proved to be a big catch for them in the round of 64. Real Oviedo have a rivalry with Sporting Gijon, with the two teams facing each other in the Asturian derby.
The likes of Robert Prosinecki, Stan Collymore, Dely Valdes, Abel Xavier, Paulo Bento, Marius Lacatus, Viktor Onopko, Ratomir Dujkovic, Juan Mata, Michu, Ibrahima Balde, and Slavisa Jokanovic are the famoust footballers who were part of Oviedo in the past. Carlos Munoz Cobo is leading the club’s all-time goal-scoring chart.
