Oviedo preview
In the last 7 games they have only conceded one defeat, and they have slowly risen in the Spanish second division. At first, they had been falling into the dangerous zone, but they have now managed to find stability.
Still, they need to improve in finding the opponent’s goal, as in all the games they have played, they only manage to score one goal per game. They haven’t played a game where they have scored two or more goals. They suffer when it comes to score.
The advantage that they have in defenseis that they are very solid, in seven games, they have only conceded two goals. In general, the team’s balance is positive, but it has to start scoring more goals or things could get complicated.
Possible lineup (4-2-3-1): Quentin Braat; Lucas Ahijado, Rodri Tarín, Dani Calvo, Abel Bretones; Jimmy Suárez, Luismi Sánchez; Viti Rozada, Hugo Rama; Sergi Enrich, Borja Baston
Granada preview
Granada is in the playoffs due to its great start, but had entered a slump from which it is now recovering from. Th teams cannot slip because the standings are too tight. On this occasion, the Copa del Rey match will help the team find stability, if it manages to win.
They have only lost three times in the last 10 games, which shows that the team is experiencing a positive streak. Offensively, they are good. Paco Lopez’s team has done a good job in front of the goal regardless of the scenario.
Myrto Uzuni has converted eleven goals, and he is a left wing machine. His diagonals are dangerous, and he ends up playing as a nine-footer because of his movement and explosion. He is accompanied on the other side by José Callejón, who already has five assists, most of them to Uzuni. A very powerful duo, no doubt.
Possible Lineup (4-3-3): Raúl Fernández; Ricard Sánchez, Víctor Díaz, Pepe Sánchez, Carlos Neva; Njegos Petrovic, Òscar Melendo, Víctor Meseguer; José Callejon, Myrto Uzuni, Jorge Molina.
