Numancia are welcoming Real Oviedo for another important game after their 0-2 result against 5th-placed Girona.
It's no vacation for neither Numancia nor Real Oviedo as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Numancia form and stats
7 victories, 5 draws and 5 defeats. That’s what Numancia have to build on here at Nuevo Estadio Los Pajaritos in the La Liga 2. The home team are struggling everywhere these days as they haven't won a league-game, regardless of being the home or the away team, in eleven attempts. The Numancia manager L. Carrión Delgado might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.
Numancia are anxiously hoping for a goal as it's been 233 minutes since the last one in league fixtures. (Scored by Curro).
Numancia are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-2 away versus Girona. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Fuenlabrada (0-2).
This is expected to be a close game, with Numancia perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Numancia as a small favourite), we find twelve games. Numancia has won two of these, drawn five and lost five.
The manager L. Carrión Delgado will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Lugo in only three days.
Numancia are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 19 goals in 17 games. Numancia have only conceded 13 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
Real Oviedo form and stats
The visitors are W5-D3-L9 on the road this term. That's in the La Liga 2. Real Oviedo love their trips these days, as their two previous away games have resulted in victories.
211 minutes! That's how long the Oviedo goalkeeper Andriy Lunin and his defense have shut out their league opponents.
Oviedo's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Fuenlabrada that finished 0-0. Before that one, a nice away victory 1-0 at Sporting Gijón.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found twelve similar matches played by Real Oviedo in our archives, and the results are: five wins for Real Oviedo, three draws and four defeats.
After this away game Oviedo return home for a La Liga 2 game against Mirandés. That game is only three sleeps after this.
Oviedo have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 17 league away games 20 goals have been scored. As for defending, Oviedo rarely keep clean sheets as they have conceded 26 goals from these away matches.
