Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Sporting Gijon will try to sneak into the Segunda Division playoffs when they take on Eldense on the last day of the regular season. Los Rojiblancos have a good chance to secure a top-six finish as Real Oviedo take on Eibar on the road, but Miguel Angel Ramirez’s men will have to showcase their worth on the field. Midfielder Roque Mesa is banned for the match, but he should be the only absentee in the away team.
Fernando Estevez’s troops, on the other hand, aim to build on a 2-1 win over Elche. Eldense, though, have already secured the Segunda Division survival and we do not believe that they are going to spoil Sporting Gijon’s party. Estevez is expected to mix the squad, with both Chapela and Andone pushing for a start. John There are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
