Mirandes vs Ponferradina Predictions

• Seven of Mirandes’ last eight games have contained three or more goals
• There have been three or more goals in seven of Ponferradina’s last nine matches
• Mirandes have won five of their last six home league fixtures

Mirandes pulling away from trouble

Three wins in four games has seen Mirandes open up a nine point gap between themselves and the relegation zone, with their goalscoring prowess particularly impressive.

Joseba Etxeberria’s side have netted at least twice in those hat-trick of victories, while of their last eight outings, only one has contained fewer than three strikes, a 2-0 defeat away to Leganes.

They have won five of their last six at Estadio Municipal de Anduva, where the last four have all contained three or more goals.

Ponferradina look destined for the play-offs

Four successive draws have left Ponferradina 11 points behind the automatic promotion spots, so perhaps their chance of finishing in the top two has faded away.

Bolo’s side are simply conceding too many for a team looking to go up, keeping just one clean sheet in nine outings, with seven of those fixtures containing three or more goals.

Four of their last five away games have included three or more strikes as well, but they have been victorious just twice in seven attempts on their travels.

I predict there will be three or more goals in this match, but we could see a bit of an upset with Mirandes landing the win, so I predict a 2-1 success to the hosts.
