Real Oviedo is playing its eighth consecutive season as a member of the Segunda Division (second tier) and they can't seem to find an ideal escape plan from this tier. Last season they missed the play-off only because sixth-placed Girona was better than them in head-to-head clashes, but this season they don't look like a team that is ready to lead the battle to enter LaLiga. Their hot-cold game has left them sitting in 15th position with 27 points, which means they are eight points clear of Burgos, who are currently sixth.

Meanwhile, Deportivo Alaves was nailed to the bottom of the LaLiga table last season and it all culminated in relegation. They started their life in the Segunda Division phenomenally, for a long time they "commanded" the table of the second league of Spain and everything looked as if the return to LaLiga would be express buy premium soccer tips. However, all the effort and energy that the Basque club invested at the start of the season were ruined in December, losing all four games in the Segunda Division, which resulted in "sliding" from the leading position to fourth place, but only three points less than the current leader.

Real Oviedo vs Deportivo Alaves Betting Tips: Under 2.5

These two teams played their first competitive clash after six years in mid-October. Alaves came to a late 2-1 victory in that duel, thanks to Salva Sevilla's goal from the penalty in the ninth minute of stoppage time.

Real Oviedo has proved to be a very tough nut at their "Estadio Nuevo Carlos Tartiere" lately. The Asturian club tied five games without defeat at home, winning an impressive 13 out of a possible 15 points in that period.

For some, 1-0 is "annoying", but for Real Oviedo it seems to be the "sweetest" result. The fact that Los Azules achieved all seven triumphs this season with that result (1-0) sounds incredible and unusual.

What sets the Asturian club apart this season is inefficiency. They scored 14, and conceded 18 goals, so with an average of miserable 1.5 goals per game, they are cemented for the bottom of the table according to that parameter.

After four consecutive defeats, Alaves finally ended the result agony last time with a 1-0 victory over Burgos. It was the third triumph in a row with that result, having previously beaten Merida and Valladolid in the Copa del Rey.

The Basques have suffered 4 out of 5 total defeats this soccer tips pro season away , which clearly shows that they are a bad on the side. They also lack creativity in attack, as they have not scored more than one goal in their last 10 away games.

Real Oviedo cultivates a strict defensive style of play, especially at home. Even 12 out of 13 home games this season were played under 2.5 goals. Alaves may have the better team on paper, but beating Oviedo in front of their home fans is easier said than done. In that case, we expect a very close and tight duel with low scoring.
