With only three more La Liga 2 rounds, every point could be crucial. Espanyol and Real Oviedo are both promotion playoff teams right now (with 62 and 61 points), but the first team under the playoff line, Sporting Gijon, is lurking with 59 points. The game on Monday could mean playoffs or even direct promotion when the regular season ends.
Espanyol have an amazing nine draws in the last 11 matches. Surely, they need to win against some team to win promotion to La Liga, but even draws are right now enough for them to stay in contention. Last weekend, Espanyol played 0-0 on the road against Valladolid. Although the home side deserved all three points in that match as they had xG of 1.25, while guests had only 0.12, Espanyol again avoided defeat.
Real Oviedo's turbulent form continues. After three games without a win, they recorded two wins in the previous two matches. Last weekend, Real Oviedo won 1-0 at home against Zarazoza. The teams were close to splitting points in that match, but Real Oviedo's Alemao scored late in the second half for all three points.
Espanyol vs Real Oviedo pick: Under 2.5 goals
Espanyol have a 3:3 goal difference in the last five matches. Four of those five games went under 2.5 goals. On the other hand, Real Oviedo went under 2.5 goals in each of the previous six games. Under 2.5 goals should be a perfect bet for this tie.
