Match Time & Date:

21:00
Prediction: 1-1
Tenerife
Sporting Gijon will look to put an end to their four-match winless streak when they face Tenerife on Saturday evening. Los Rojiblancos have been struggling up front of late, and you should bear in mind that under 2.5 goals have been netted in each of their last five league fixtures. Both Axel Bamba and Nacho Mendez are sidelined with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
Los Insulares, on the other hand, aim to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Mirandes. Tenerife, though, are not regarded as good travellers, and we do not believe that they are capable of picking up more than one point from the match. Both Zorrilla Jimenez and Waldo Rubio are banned for the match. In the first half of the season the two teams played out a 1-1 draw.
