THE PREDICTION
Sitting in the playoff positions but just six points ahead of their opponents this weekend, Gijon will consider this a huge opportunity to lay a marker for the rest of the season after finishing 2020 and starting 2021 with draws against Leganes and Lugo. They come into this with an unbeaten home record; played ten with six wins and four draws perhaps highlight a minor concern in their long-term ambitions. Less than a goal per game and 40% of home games not being won due to conservatism could cost Gijon later on. Fuenlabrada are on the back of a long 120 minutes plus a penalty victory against Mallorca in midweek as well as 0-0 draw at Leganes. That has extended their unbeaten run to four in all competitions but it remains unconvincing, despite impressive results against Gijon’s potential promotion competitors in Mallorca and Leganes. A narrow Gijon win would be a sensible bet for this one.
