Espanyol Sporting Gijón betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The probable scenario will be to have a well played match between two candidates for the climb to the next echelon. Espanyol, playing at home, should assume the bulk of the match and have the best opportunities, since they have a squad with good individual values, capable of solving the match from one minute to the next. Having said that and taking into account these factors, betting on the home team's victory is a worthwhile option.

Preview
Espanyol and Sporting Gijón face at RCDE Stadium, in a match for the 17th round of the Segunda División. There are only 2 recent head‑to‑heads between these two teams: on 25‑04‑2017, which ended in a (1‑1) draw, and another on 11‑12‑2016, which ended in a (2‑1) win by Espanyol. In this match the home advantage may play an important role, as both teams present significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis Espanyol

The home team is currently in the 2nd position of the league, with 33 points won, after 10 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against Real Zaragoza, by (2‑0). In the last match, they won in an away match against FC Cartagena, by (1‑3). This is a team that is often stronger at home, with the help of its supporters, so they usually make good use of the home advantage, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 3 draws and 8 losses in away matches; against 8 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses at their stadium. In the last 8 home league matches Espanyol has a record of 6 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, so they have won 19 points out of 24 possible. There are a few recurrent results in their home matches: at half‑time 0‑0 (3 out of 8 matches) and after the 90' 2‑0 (3 out of 8 matches). Their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition.

The team led by Vicente Moreno should present themselves in a 4-3-3 formation, privileging the defensive organization and the counterattacks, mainly by the side runners. The three most advanced players, responsible for putting the opponent's defensive structure in disarray are Adrián Embarba, Wu Lei and Rául de Tomás. Regarding the midfield, it should be formed by Keidi Bare, Fran Mérida and Sergi Darder. For this match, the Espanyol coach has all the players available.

Confirmed Lineup: Diego López, David López, Oscar Regaño, Lluís López, Adrià Pedrosa, Darder, Keidi Bare, Nico Melamed, Melendo, Raúl de Tomás, Adrián Embarba.
Coach: L. Ramis Monfort.

Analysis Gijón

The away team is currently in the 5th position of the league, with 28 points won, after 8 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Las Palmas, by (3‑2). In the last match, they tied in a home match against Albacete, by (0‑0). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses in away matches, with 11 goals scored and 13 conceded; against 8 wins, 5 draws and 2 losses at their stadium, with 17 goals scored and 8 conceded. In the last 8 away league matches Sporting Gijón has a record of 3 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses, so they have won 10 points out of 24 possible. In their away matches there are a few frequent results: at half‑time 0‑0 (4 out of 8 matches) and 1‑0 (3 out of 8 matches) and after the 90' 1‑0 (3 out of 8 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 6 of the last 8 matches for this competition have ended with Under 2,5 goals. In 16 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 4 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 9 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 3 of their 6 goals between minutes (61'‑75').

Sporting de Gijón should profile in a 4-4-2 to promote ball possession and quick attacks, preferably from the flanks. Uros Durdevic and Álvaro Vázquez should be the main figures in the attack of the visitors. In turn, the central corridor should be formed by Aitor García, José Gragera, Manu García and Gaspar Campos.

Confirmed Lineup: Diego Mariño, Guille Rosas, Saúl García, Borja López, Jean-Sylvain Babin, Javi Fuego, Gaspar Campos, José Gragera, Manu García, Aitor García, Uroš Đurđević.
Coach: A. Fernández Antuña.
