The Segunda championship continues during the international break. In the fourth round, Deportivo will face Sporting Gijón at home. The match is set for Saturday, September 6, starting at 16:15 CET. Here’s a preview and prediction for the game.
Both teams have shown confidence in the early part of the season. However, Deportivo has already dropped some points, unlike Gijón.
In their first match, Deportivo secured a 3-1 away win against Granada. This was followed by two draws: a goalless match at home against Burgos and a 2-2 draw away at Leganés. Currently, Deportivo has five points and is placed eighth in the table. It’s still early in the season, and plenty can change. Last season, the team finished 15th, accumulating 53 points and avoiding relegation by a narrow margin.
Sporting Gijón ended last season in 11th place, with 56 points from 42 matches—four more than Deportivo. They started this season strongly, winning their first three games: 2-1 against Córdoba, 1-0 against Ceuta, and another 1-0 against Cultural Leonesa. Sporting has a perfect nine points and is currently second in the standings, just behind the leaders on goal difference. However, the season is still in its early stages.
Both teams have remained unbeaten this season, making for an exciting match. Expect dynamic play, and it might be wise to bet on both teams to score, with odds at 1.9.
