The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Real Oviedo II are in the 9th position while the guests worry at 16th.
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
It's quite the trip for Melilla when visiting Real Oviedo II as the cities are 1100 kilometers apart.
