Valencia - Real Oviedo predictions

Punters who are looking for a safe bet should definitely consider this match. The home win odds of 1.70 bring great value considering the fact that Valencia are indeed firm favourites to defeat Real Oviedo.

The current perspective makes the situation plain as day. Given the superiority of Valencia and the 5.20 odds given to Real Oviedo to win, it is clear that anything but a home win would be a stunning upset.

Despite the 2:2 draw at the end, Valencia fans have a lot of reason to be happy with their previous outing. They were leading at half time against a Espanyol , a considerably stronger opponent with home-field advantage.

It’s hard to hold Real Oviedo’s previous home loss (1:3) against them. After all, they were up against Barcelona, who were considered very hard favourites at odds of 1.25. As was expected, Barcelona won the match decisively.

Looking over the home team’s recent record, we can see a worrying trend. They’ve conceded more than 5 goals over the past 3 matches alone, indicating problems in their defensive lineup.

Real Oviedo may need to work on their defence if they want to get anywhere. In the 3 most recent matches they played, they conceded more than 5 times in total, which is not a good record to have.

Valencia are currently orbiting around the middle of the pack with a 11th spot in the La Liga table. They have their work cut out for them if they want at least a Europa League qualification – though there’s plenty of time to get there.

Real Oviedo’s campaign got off to a rocky start this season, with them landing in the relegation zone after 7 matches. They’re 0 points away from getting out, but earning any points this Monday will be extremely challenging. Most betting predictions see them as the underdogs, and their confidence probably took a hit as well.

This Monday, both teams will be at full strength and able to give it their all.

Our prediction would be a fairly safe Home Win bet at the odds of 1.70. It’s obvious the hosts have a clear advantage going into this clash, and there’s plenty of reasons to feel confident in their success.
