6 wins, 5 draws and 8 losses. That’s the product of Real Oviedo playing as the away team in the La Liga 2 this season. Impressively, the visitors are on a five-match winning run which they hope continue versus Sporting Gijón.

The club members enjoyed Real Oviedo's previous game versus Real Zaragoza (placed 13th), a 2-1 win played at home. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager Díaz when Masca scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 77th minute. Midfielder Rozada was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 7.25. Rozada scored one goal and dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times.

Before that, Real Oviedo secured a home win against Ponferradina with the score 3-2.

Low-scoring game? 30 of this club's latest 39 league rounds have contained two goals or less.

The attacking power of Oviedo when travelling is not overwhelming with 14 goals scored from 19 league matches away.

There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 2 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.
