Competition: Spanish Monday
Market: Sporting Gijón wins
Chances: 11/10 @1xBet
Sporting Gijon will be looking to fight their way up into the play-off places on Friday evening and travel to Burgos where they meet a struggling Mirandes.
Starting at home, while Mirandes might have reopened the 2025/2026 season as a standout play-off candidate, Los Rojillos have shown a series of problems and find themselves in the heart of a real battle. After suffering a heartbreak at Cultural Leonesa last weekend when they ultimately lost 3-2, the Burgos team has rightly come under scrutiny. After ending October with a dismal 3-1 at home to Racing Santander, the Reds have now lost each of their previous three consecutive Segunda appearances by an aggregate score of 8-3. In fact, Mirandes have collected just three points from each of their last eight consecutive matches in the second tier – a slog that stretches all the way back to September 5. As this weekend’s matches got underway, Los Rojillos sat in the relegation zone and four points adrift of safety Segunda, having also scored 20 goals since the opening of the new season.
As for the visitors, while Sporting Gijón may have endured a dismal five-match losing streak in September, Borja Jimenez’s men have certainly turned a real corner in recent weeks. Last seen ending October with a gritty 1-0 win at home to Real Zaragoza, the Asturias outfit are enjoying what has become a recent surge. Last month they made a real statement when they recorded an action-packed 3-2 win at Real Valladolid. Friday’s guests have won each of their previous three consecutive Segunda appearances and have rocketed back up the standings. Knowing they can find a route to the play-off places this weekend, Jimenez’s camp should also be excited by their latest clash against second-tier relegation scrappers. On their way to a 3-1 win when they welcomed Friday’s hosts to town on April 18, the former Leganes boss is dreaming of a repeat appearance here.
