Roces vs Covadonga tips and predictions

Covadonga too short in the betting

There's not much up for grabs in the 1X2 and the short price for Covadonga renders them unbackable. Roces don't look likely to get the win but they might keep the visitors on their toes. Building on the strong rearguard performances of both sides, a goalless stalemate is the pick.

These sides have impressed at the back. Solid on their own soil Roces have conceded only 1 goal in their last 4 matches, while Covadonga have been impressive defensively on the road. They've conceded an average of 0.7 goals per game over their last 3 matches away from home.

In previous matches in this head-to-head, one of the last 3 has ended in a draw.

Most observers believe that only one side is likely to score because of the favouritism for Covadonga. In the Both Teams To Score market, the No option is advised. And for fans of the goal line, it's no more than one goal in this match considering the prices available.

Roces have drawn 4 of their last 7 matches, most recently when they drew 0-0 with R. Oviedo B at home last Saturday. Covadonga have drawn 6 of their last 11 away games. It isn't a very exciting prediction and it feels like a match to keep at arm's length. Stalemate beckons after what could be a tightly contested match-up.
