Real Oviedo preview: Destined for the drop
Real Oviedo begin the 28th match day of the 2025/26 La Liga campaign sitting eight points adrift of safety with just three victories but the Asturians have at least shown some fight of late.
That was the case last weekend as Oviedo shared a 1-1 draw with Espanyol at the RCDE Stadium in Barcelona in a game in which Alberto Reina gave them an eighth minute lead before Kike equalised for the Catalans mid-way through the first-half.
Valencia preview: Pushing away from danger
Former West Bromwich Albion manager Carlos Corberan remains under pressure at Valencia but Los Che have certainly eased that on their coach with an impressive recent run of form pushing them into the middle-of-the-table.
The Valencians come into this one on the back of an entertaining 3-2 victory over Deportivo Alaves at Mestalla last week, with a dramatic late turnaround to ensure they have now won three of their last four matches in La Liga.

Real Oviedo vs Valencia prediction
In that aforementioned defeat of Alaves last week, Valencia equalised in the 90th minute via defender Eray Cumart before Hugo Duro notched a match-winning penalty in the 99th minute. Oviedo have scored just 17 goals in their 27 matches this season – eight fewer than any other side in La Liga – so, while Valencia are slight favourites, it is expected to be yet another low-scoring encounter.
