CD Lugo Preview
CD Lugo achieved a surprise 1-0 win over Racing Santander during last weekend to reach four wins in 18 matches. That favorable result has not been enough to help them climb out of the relegation zone, as they are in the 19th place in the standings with 18 points.
The good news is that the win helped end a negative streak of five games without a win, and the best thing is that they have scored in consecutive games, something they have been struggling to do. This can have a positive impact on the team and help it climb the ladder in the upcoming games.
Probable lineup (4-3-3): Óscar Whalley, Miguel Loureiro, Xavi Torres, Alberto Rodríguez, Zé Ricardo, Juan Pedro Jiménez, Pablo Clavería, El Hacen, Jaume Cuéllar, Chris Ramos, Sebas Moyano.
Sporting Gijón Preview
Sporting Gijón, despite not winning, had been quiet for four consecutive matches, earning at least a point, but last weekend they suffered a defeat once again losing 0-1 to Las Palmas.
So far the team registers five wins, eight draws and five defeats and, curiously, in the five matches it lost it was unable to score goals. Along with Las Palmas, Albacete and Mirandés, it is one of the teams with the most draws in this league season. The team is generating many doubts about its performance, especially playing as visitors, where it has won only one of its nine games.
Probable lineup (4-4-2): Iván Cuéllar, Guille Rosas, Carlos Izquierdoz, Pablo Insua, José Ángel Valdés, Juan Otero, Giovanni Zarfino, Christian Rivera, Aitor García, Cristo González, Víctor Campuzano.
JefeBet Prediction
Perhaps neither of these two teams can be reliable to predict a positive result for them, but at least CD Lugo has four unbeaten games as locals, while Sporting Gijón has failed to win in its last seven away games. Lugo is in an urgent need to pick up points, so they are expected to win the match.
Prediction: CD Lugo wins by a score of 1-0.
