R. Oviedo vs Levante Prediction & Betting Tips (4 October)

When Real Oviedo welcomes Levante to Estadio Nuevo Carlos Tartiere on October 4th, the stakes will be high for both sides languishing near the bottom of the LaLiga table. Oviedo, currently 19th with just three points from six matches, are desperate to reverse a troubling trend of five losses in their last six outings. Their most recent defeat—a 1-3 home loss to Barcelona—exposed defensive frailties, but also hinted at attacking promise with Alberto Reina and Leander Dendoncker showing flashes of creativity. Head coach Luis Carrión will be banking on home advantage and a resilient midfield to disrupt Levante’s rhythm.

Levante, sitting 16th with five points from seven matches, have shown more offensive bite, particularly through Etta Eyong and Ivan Romero, who have each netted four goals this season. Despite their firepower, the team has struggled to convert chances consistently, allowing a league-high 127 goal attempts. Their recent 1-1 draw away at Getafe was a gritty performance, but it also extended their winless streak to six of their last seven matches. Coach Javier Calleja will likely emphasize compactness and counter-attacking speed, hoping to exploit Oviedo’s defensive lapses.

Historically, Oviedo have held their own against Levante, winning two of their last five meetings and scoring in each of their last five home encounters against the Valencian side. The most recent clash in April ended 1-0 in Oviedo’s favor, a result that could inspire confidence despite their current form. Interestingly, matches between these two often hover around the two-goal mark, with three of their last eight meetings ending with exactly two goals. This statistical trend aligns well with a moderate scoreline prediction.

Given the current dynamics, a 2-1 victory for Real Oviedo seems plausible. While Levante’s attacking duo may find the net, Oviedo’s urgency and home form could tip the balance. Expect Reina to orchestrate play from midfield and Dendoncker to be a threat on set pieces. If Oviedo can tighten their backline and capitalize on Levante’s defensive openness, they might just pull off a much-needed win—one that could mark a turning point in their season.
