EI San Martin vs Gijon Industrial tips and predictions

Interesting Tercera RFEF clash should be tight

There's not much between EI San Martin and Gijon Industrial in the Tercera RFEF. The hosts are in 17th place with 21 points, compared to their opponents who are in 13th place on 25 points.

Arguments can be made for both sides and whatever happens it won't be a surprise to see them cancel each other out. Building on the strong rearguard performances of both sides, a goalless stalemate is the pick.

Both of these sides have looked strong in defence. Looking secure at home EI San Martin have conceded at an average of just 0.7 goals per game over their last 3 matches. Meanwhile Gijon Industrial have only conceded 0.8 goals per game on average in their last 4 away matches.

In previous matches between these sides 4 of the last 7 have ended in parity.

It would be wrong to imply that the favourites are a dead-cert here. Don't be surprised if the two sides cancel each other out in a battle of attrition. It's not value that stands out but the No BTTS bet seems fair enough. In the total goals market, it's Under 1.5 goals standing out in this one considering the prices available.

EI San Martin have drawn 8 of their last 17 matches on their own soil, including their most recent match when they drew 0-0 with Praviano last week. Gijon Industrial have drawn 10 of their last 19 matches. This will probably be a close encounter but without sufficent evidence to justify a home or away win in the match odds, the pick has to be with the value offered up by the draw price.
