Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 1-1
Gijon
Tenerife welcome Sporting Gijon to their Estadio Heliodoro Rodriguez Lopez on day 8 of the new La Liga 2 campaign. The start of the season has been a mixed bag for los Insulares, who sit in 15th place in the standings ahead of Friday’s clash. As always, Tenerife produce much better showings at home than on the travels, with the team eyeing their third consecutive triumph in front of home fans. Midfielder Alex Corredera is banned for the match, while all Mohammed Dauda, Sergio Gonzalez, Jose Angel Jurado, and Zorrilla Jimenez remain in the recovery room.
Los Rojiblancos, on the other hand, defeated Ibiza 2-1 at the weekend without Montenegro striker Uros Djurdjevic, who was on international duty. Sporting Gijon, though, are not regarded as good travellers, and we do not believe that they are going to grab more than one point from Friday’s match. Djurdjevic is back to the starting XI, while both Jose Angel and Christian Rivera should miss out with injuries.

Diego Marino is a Spanish goalkeeper who plays for Sporting Gijon. The 185-cm-tall shoot-stopper was born on 9 May, 1990 in Vigo and he played for the likes of Santa Marina, Rapido Bouzas, Sardoma, Areosa and Villarreal during his youth career. Between 2008 and 2010 he played for Villarreal C and in 2010 he started playing for Villarreal B.
Marino made 72 appearances for Villarreal B and in 2012 he joined the first team. He was not Villarreal’s first-choice goalkeeper in the 2012/2013 campaign and he made no more than nine appearances for the Yellow Submarine. In the 2015/2016 season he played for Levante, but following their relegation to Segunda Division, Diego Marino decided to sign a deal with Sporting Gijon on 1 July, 2016.
The goalkeeper has 6 caps for Spain U-21, while playing 3 games for Spain U23. It has to be noted that he won UEFA U-21 Championships in 2011 and 2013 with La Furia Roja. Back in 2007 he made it to the FIFA U-17 World Cup final with the Spanish national team.
Highlighted Team (Gijon):
Sporting Gijon are a Spanish football club that competes in La Liga. Sporting Gijon’s home ground is El Molinon, the stadium that was built in 1908. El Molinon is the oldest football field in Spain and the capacity of the stadium is 30,000. Sporting Gijon’s home kit is red and white and the club’s main rivals are Real Oviedo.
The two teams take on each other in the Asturian derby. Sporting Gijon did remarkably well to finish the 1978/1979 La Liga campaign in second position in the standings and that is considered the club’s biggest success. Los Rojiblancos were runners-up in Spanish Copa Del Rey in 1981 and 1982, but they have yet to win the Spanish Cup.
The club was founded in 1905 and the club’s original name was Sporting Gijones. Sporting Gijon participated in the UEFA Cup on six occasions, but they did not record a good result in the European competition.
