Sporting Gijon and Eldense are under the spotlight in Spain today

Sporting Gijon are favourites in tonight's Segunda Division game but Tobias Gourlay's not sure it'll be totally plain sailing for them against Eldense

  • Sporting have conceded in 5/7 at home

  • Outsiders Eldense have netted in 6/8 on the road

  • Back BTTS


Sporting Gijon v Eldense
Monday 20:00 (Live on LaLigaSportsTV)

In the Canaries yesterday, a late Tenerife goal wasn't enough to stop Kev on his weekly march to profit. The hosts salvaged a 1-1 draw with their 90th-minute equaliser, but didn't stop Kev landing a winner.

Kev finished in Spain and that's where we're starting today. Fifth-placed Sporting host 11th-place Eldense in the Segunda Division and another 1-1 draw would suit us just fine.

Sporting are unbeaten on their own patch this season (W5-D2-L0). The hosts have scored 2+ in 6/7 while conceding at least once in 5/7. Backing both teams to score has been the right thing to do in 4/7.

Promoted Eldense are an even W3-D2-L3 on the road. Fernando Estevez's men have conceded in all but two of those games - and the clean sheets came against teams well below them in the table now, unlike Sporting.

At the other end, Eldense have netted on 6/8 road trips including all of the last three. At an odds-against price, we'll take the outsiders to grab a goal tonight and help deliver a BTTS bet.

Back Both Teams To Score @ 2.111/10
