Málaga and Real Oviedo have both delivered a "par" performance so far, to use a golfing expression. Both hold mid-table positions in the La Liga 2.
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Málaga and Real Oviedo.
Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 900 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.
