• Competition: LaLiga 2 Promotion
• Date: 16.06.2024
• Kickoff: 17:30 UTC +1 / 18:30 CEST
• Venue: Estadio Nuevo Carlos Tartiere (Oviedo)

The last two matches of the season will be the most important for Real Oviedo and Espanyol. Those duels will answer the question of who will be the last participant of LaLiga in the next season.

Real Oviedo entered the Playoff from the last 6th position and defeated the favored Eibar 2-0 in two matches. Oviedo has a great opportunity to reach the elite and this team, which did not have such ambitions at the beginning of the season, can achieve great success.

In recent years, Espanyol has been moving between LaLiga and LaLiga 2, and the quality of this team is somewhere in between. In the Playoff semi-final matches, they were more successful against Gijon, winning 1-0 overall. Espanyol is undefeated in the previous 19 matches, which represents top form

Real Oviedo vs Espanyol pick: UNDER 2.5 GOALS

In all matches of these teams in the semi-finals of the Playoff, 2 or less goals were scored per match. A total of only 3 goals were scored in those 4 matches, which is less than 1 goal on average. Espanyol is known as a defensive-oriented team that does not play too risky on away games, so we should expect a very patient and calm approach from them. This duel will probably be decided in the second match, and here we expect under 2.5 goals in total
