Low-scoring duel expected between Oviedo and Eibar
Real Oviedo vs SD Eibar - 10/01/2022
3626
The Spanish second tier provides us with one fixture to look at as Real Oviedo take on Eibar at the Estadio Nuevo Carlos Tartiere with the hosts looking to continue their encouraging spell of form in La Liga 2.
Real Oviedo have lost just one of their last eight matches overall with this being a 2-1 defeat away from home at Real Valladolid but wins against Amorebieta, Alcorcon and Ponferradina have placed the hosts in 9th place on the La Liga 2 ladder and just two points adrift of the top six clubs.
Results and form at home have also been solid and consistent where Real Oviedo have been concerned as the hosts have lost just once in their 11 home games to date this term while five wins and five draws have proved that they’re a hard unit to break down on home soil.
Goals could be in short supply though as seven of Real Oviedo’s 11 home matches this season have resulted in under 2.5 goals and the hosts have kept five clean sheets as well.
Eibar have also produced some encouraging results of late in the Spanish second tier as the visitors have suffered just the one defeat out of their last nine matches overall in La Liga 2 which came in the form of a 1-0 loss away at Real Zaragoza.
This sustained sequence of results include five wins which came in the form of victories over Real Oviedo (at home), Alcorcon, Girona, Las Palmas and Real Sociedad B that have helped Eibar up into one of the automatic promotion spots in La Liga 2.
On the road, Eibar have lost just three out of their 11 games on their travels so far this season but although they’ve picked up four wins in the process, the visitors have also been involved in four draws on the road as well.
The goals market may also be the best option where Eibar are concerned, especially a lack of goals, as eight out of Eibar’s 11 away games have also resulted in lower than 3 goals to date this term.
Eibar have kept four clean sheets on their travels and this could contribute to another low-scoring encounter against Real Oviedo as five of the previous seven meetings between these two clubs have also resulted in under 2.5 goals.
