NextGOAL tip: Numancia +0.75 · 2 stars
The last time the two teams met was in June 2020, when Numancia edged it 1-0, but this time it is a Copa Del Rey game where the two meet in a cup format: one match only, no second leg to make amends. Numancia come into this on a winless run of 4 matches, but they are not a team that falls apart easily, because in their own league they have conceded just 4 goals in 8 games. Real Oviedo come from La Liga 2 in better form, having won 3 of their last 5 and being unbeaten in 3 straight. Their attack looks clearly more ready. This game is likely to play out with Real Oviedo dominating possession and pushing forward, while Numancia sit deep and wait to counter. The first half may not be very open, but in the second half, if the hosts can keep resisting, the game will get more and more entertaining.
