Sporting Gijon vs Eldense prediction 27.11.2023

• Competition: La Liga 2
• Date: Monday, 27th November 2023
• Kickoff: 20:00 UTC / 21:00 CET
• Venue: Estadio El Molinón (Gijón)

Two high-performing teams, Sporting Gijon and Eldense, are set to compete at Estadio El Molinón in Gijón on Monday evening. This will be the 17th round of the La Liga 2.

After enduring two unexpectedly poor seasons in La Liga 2 and narrowly avoiding relegation, Sporting Gijon had a rough start to the current season, losing two of the first three games. It seemed as though the Rojiblancos were headed for another disappointing season. However, they turned their luck around remarkably after this initial setback, losing only once in the subsequent 13 rounds. They now occupy the 2nd place position on the leaderboard, just six points shy of the top spot.

In the 2021/22 season, Eldense was playing in the fourth tier of Spanish football. However, after two successive promotions, they made it to La Liga 2, a feat achieved after 59 years! Currently, the Azulgranas are performing impressively in La Liga 2, holding the 9th position with 23 points. They are only six points away from direct promotion and just three points short of the playoffs spot.

Sporting Gijon vs Eldense pick: Both teams to score

Sporting Gijon is currently enjoying a seven-game streak without defeat, netting 14 goals in the process, which equates to two per game. They’ve shown exceptional performance on home turf, maintaining a no-loss record. Crucially for our wager, Gijon has managed to score a minimum of one goal in every encounter. Given their upcoming match against Eldense, who has displayed defensive weaknesses all season, we anticipate Gijon to score at least one or two goals.

Eldense are performing exceptionally well, going unbeaten in their last eight matches. They have managed to score a minimum of one goal in each of these games and their offensive prowess seems to be on the rise, as evidenced by them scoring two or more goals in their most recent five fixtures. Although they will be up against a team known for their solid defense, we have faith in Eldense’s ability to get on the score sheet. However, we doubt their capacity to keep a clean sheet, given that only four out of their 16 games (or 25%) have ended without them conceding a goal.

Given the exceptional performance of both teams and particularly their ability to score goals, we think that betting on both teams to score would be the most secure choice for this match.
