Match Time & Date:

21:00
Prediction: 1-0
Lugo
Monday’s football match between Sporting Gijon and Lugo will bring down the curtain on day 38 of the 2020/21 La Liga 2 campaign. Los Rojiblancos are determined to book their place in the playoffs, and it seems as if they will not have a better chance than this to return to winning ways. Former Partizan Belgrade attacker Uros Djurdjevic, who is enjoying a very successful season, is widely expected to lead the line for the hosts.
You should know that Sporting are after their tenth home win of the process. Lugo, on the other hand, have been struggling in the second half of the season, and, as a result, their Segunda Division status is in great danger. Luis Cesar Sampedro’s troops are not regarded as good travellers, and given the importance of Monday’s clash for the hosts, the visitors are likely to return to Galicia empty-handed.
