Oviedo vs Almeria prediction, H2H & Probable Line-ups - Oсtober 13, 2024
On October 13th, at "Nuevo Carlos Tartiere," the 9th round of the Spanish Segunda will feature a match between "Oviedo" and "Almeria." An exclusive prediction from Dailysports experts has been prepared.
Oviedo
Last season, the team seriously contended for promotion to La Liga for the first time in a long while. After clinching sixth place in the regular season, they reached the decisive playoff round, even winning the first leg. However, in the crucial moment, the more experienced "Espanyol" secured a 2-0 victory and advanced to La Liga.
The "Carbayones," remaining in Segunda, have had an inconsistent and unimpressive start to the current season. After defeating the newcomer "Deportivo," they finished with a goalless draw, followed by two consecutive losses. However, since mid-September, they’ve picked up form, alternating narrow home wins with away draws. In their last match against "Levante," they played to a scoreless draw.
Almeria
The club was promoted to La Liga in 2022. However, after two seasons, they dropped back to the more familiar division. This failure was attributed to the owner's decision to part ways with Rubi, the coach who had led the team's rise and helped them stay in La Liga.
This summer, the "Red and Whites" reunited with their former coach. However, it seems to confirm the saying that "you can't step into the same river twice." After a relatively decent start (one win and two draws), the club mostly suffered losses. Nonetheless, in the last round, they secured a confident 2-0 victory over "Burgos."
