Our Predictions
Both teams are solid but not invincible, and recent meetings show a cautious approach. The odds favor a tight draw, yet with a likelihood of goals—making 'Yes' for BTS and over 2.5 a smart pick given their attack-teams' fluctuating form and a rivalry that sometimes opens up. A 1-1 or 2-2 scoreline feels quite plausible here.
Almeria may be eager to bounce back at home, but their attacking line-up isn’t firing perfectly. Gijón’s tough defensive record away suggests this could be a low-scoring, tight affair with the hosts just sneaking it. A 1-0 or 2-0 win for Almeria looks reasonable, especially if Gijón struggles to find the net.
Gijón's confidence and recent away performances suggest they could nick this win, particularly if both teams open up late. The odds for Gijón aren’t great, but there's a chance they can take advantage of Almeria’s vulnerabilities. Expect an energetic game with both sides scoring, culminating in a narrow away win with several goals.
Welcome to Extratips, folks! Today, we've got a spicy Segunda División clash: Almeria hosting Gijón on September 20th at 19:00 in sunny Spain. Almeria’s latest outings have been a mixed bag—two wins and three draws—though their recent form screams unpredictability, especially after a tough 3-1 loss to Valladolid. Gijón, on the other hand, are buzzing with confidence, sitting snugly in 7th spot with 8 points from five matches, after some gritty performances away from home. Looking at the odds, bet365 favors a home win at 1.70, with a draw at 3.70, and Gijón as outsiders at 4.50. That price on Gijón isn't thrilling but suggests they’re not here just for a sightseeing tour. Currently, Almeria are down in 15th with 5 points, while Gijón is creeping up in 7th—so both teams are eager for a win to climb the table. Their previous head-to-head saw a goalless draw earlier this year, hinting at a cautious battle. Over their last five away matches, Gijón have a decent record with 2 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss. Almeria's home form looks shaky, with only 2 wins in five. Gijón are the more confident side overall, especially defensively—they’ve only conceded 4 goals away. Expect a tense match with few clear-cut chances, but Gijón’s buoyant form could challenge Almeria’s shaky backline. This game might hinge on set-pieces or individual brilliance. Will Gijón snatch something? Or will Almeria defend their turf? Let's get into the predictions!
