Mirandes
Sporting Gijon and Mirandes go head to head at Estadio El Molinon in what is expected to be an interesting La Liga 2 game. Gijon aim to bounce back from a 2-0 loss to Real Valladolid and the bookies see them as hot favourites to beat los Rojillos in front of home fans. Summer signing Haissem Hassan is pushing for a start, while all Carlos Izquierdoz, Fran Villalba, Axel Bamba, and Jonathan Varane should miss sout with injuries.
Mirandes, on the other hand, kicked off the new La Liga 2 campaign in style, with the team crushing Alcorcon 4-0, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry against Sporting, who have turned their “El Molinon” into a real fortress. In their last meeting in the Spanish second tier Mirandes defeated Gijon 4-3, meaning that the hosts are hungry for revenge. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team ahead of the trip to Gijon.
