Real Oviedo vs Sporting Gijon Predictions

• Real Oviedo have seen under 2.5 goals scored in each of their last five games.
• Meanwhile, each of the last four matches to feature Sporting Gijon have contained under 2.5 goals.
• Only bottom club Racing Santander (10) have scored fewer than Oviedo’s 12 goals in the Segunda Division this term.

Low-scoring sides unlikely to serve up a thriller

Saturday’s Segunda Division action pits Real Oviedo against Sporting Gijon, and the two mid-table rivals look unlikely to serve up much goalmouth action after low-scoring runs.

Indeed, each of the last five matches to feature the hosts has contained under 2.5 goals, with the last four featuring just one goal apiece. Meanwhile, only bottom side Racing Santander (10) have scored fewer than Oviedo’s 12 Segunda goals this term.

Visitors Gijon have also been involved in several low-scoring affairs recently, with none of their last four games containing over two goals.

Given the defensive solidity exhibited by both teams recently, backing under 2.5 goals looks a prudent play. Meanwhile, Gijon have recorded a league-high nine draws this term, making a 1-1 stalemate a decent correct score prediction.
