Simon Dalton presents his prediction for the Segunda División match.
Real Oviedo urgently need a win after their heavy defeat to Elche to climb back into the top five. The match against Huesca presents a great opportunity to make amends in front of their home supporters.
Real Oviedo
Real Oviedo currently sit in seventh place after the 0:4 loss but now return to their home ground, where they have been unstoppable—winning six consecutive matches. They have consistently scored at least three goals in recent games, with an average of 1.31 goals per game. Real Oviedo enjoy high-scoring affairs, with the total exceeding 2.5 goals in five of their last six encounters.
Huesca
Huesca are enduring a torrid run of eight matches without a win, dropping them to 13th place in the Segunda División. Although they manage to score consistently, averaging 1.31 goals per match, their defensive lapses have cost them positive results, achieving only two clean sheets in 16 matches. Their away form is even more concerning, with five defeats in their last six games on the road.
Real Oviedo vs Huesca Prediction
Real Oviedo are clear favourites, especially considering their home advantage and Huesca's ongoing crisis. The hosts should start the game assertively to avoid repeating mistakes from their clash with Elche. Therefore, we're backing an Oviedo victory.
