Ceares form and stats
Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Ceares with their six defeats in a row. Not since the Coruxo game, 45 days ago, have they avoided a loss.
In their previous game, the manager P. Busto Fernández led his Ceares to a defeat in the Segunda Division RFEF: Group 1 match away at Cristo Atletico. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Estadio Municipal El Molinón.
Prior to that, an away loss at Langreo in the Segunda Division RFEF: Group 1.Sporting Gijón form and stats
