Real Oviedo vs Mirandes Prediction & Tips
Oviedo has a long and not very glorious but dramatic history. It was remembered mainly because, literally at the last moment, the appearance of a wealthy investor saved it from bankruptcy. After that, the footballers managed to be promoted and stabilised in the second division. Only in 2024 did they pull off the coup: they finished sixth in the regular season, reached the playoff final, but lost to ‘Espanyol’.
Mirandes has undoubtedly experienced the best season in its history. They made their debut in Segunda just over a decade ago, in 2012, and after losing the category for a couple of years, this spring they practically equalled the record of today’s opponents: 75 points – and that was after finishing eighteenth the previous season!
In the playoffs, Alessio Lisci’s men were not intimidated, even though it was their first experience in this kind of competition. First, they left ‘Racing’ on the road: 3-3 in Santander, 4-1 at home. Then, thanks to a single goal scored by Reina Campos in the third minute, they secured an advantage for the second leg, the decisive match.
