Real Oviedo form and stats

2 victories, 2 draws and 1 defeat. That’s what Real Oviedo have to build on here at Estadio Nuevo Carlos Tartiere in the La Liga 2. Hopes of three in a row are alive for Real Oviedo after consecutive victories at their own ground.

The Oviedo goalkeeper Leonardo Roman Riquelme is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 370 minutes without conceding a goal in the La Liga 2.

The home team returns to Estadio Nuevo Carlos Tartiere after drawing with Amorebieta (placed 19th) on their last time out; the game ended 0-0. Calvo, defender, was given a rating of 8.12/10 in that game, top of the team. Calvo won 9 of 10 duels.

Before that, Real Oviedo had a home game versus Albacete which ended with a victory 3-0.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Oviedo have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 12 games) they have won 8 times, drawn 3 and lost 1.

It should be considered that a glance at the 10 latest league matches reveals that 8 of them qualified as a both teams not to score result (only one or none of the teams scored a goal).

There will be little rest for Real Oviedo after this match as they are travelling to Manresa for a Copa Del Rey game in only four days.

As for guarding their own goal, Oviedo have only let in {2 goals} at home.

Alcorcón form and stats

2 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses. That’s the product of Alcorcón playing as the away team in the La Liga 2 this season.

Alcorcón delivered a 1-1 draw playing at home against FC Cartagena (placed 22nd) in their previous match. Midfield player Quintilla was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.81/10. Quintilla hit five key passes and had 39 successful passes (of 44 total).

Preceding that game, the 0-2 loss visiting FC Andorra's place.

Alcorcón are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 4 wins, 4 draws and 4 defeats. From a total of 12 matches.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Alcorcón manager Díaz as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Navalcarnero.

Alcorcón have scored 8 goals on their travels this season, from 6 away games in the league. Alcorcón's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 10 goals from these trips.

Head 2 Head

Real Oviedo have not lost in the last 4 matches (2-2-0) facing Alcorcón.
