On October 6, the Ciudad de Valencia will host the match of the 8th round of the Spanish Segunda, featuring Levante against Oviedo. An announcement and prediction have been prepared by the experts at Sportsmacro.
Levante
The team debuted in the Europa League in 2012, making it to the quarter-finals before being eliminated in extra time. After dropping out of the Primera in 2022, they fought hard for a return but finished third in the regular season and were eliminated in the knockout rounds. In the following season, they managed only an eighth-place finish.
The Frogs started the new campaign well, remaining unbeaten in the first five rounds and securing eleven points. However, they experienced a setback away at Zaragoza. They bounced back impressively, winning 4-2 at home against Almería.
Oviedo
The club, after receiving new ownership, stabilized its financial situation and quickly climbed to the Segunda. However, it seemed content with this achievement. In the last season, the team surprised many by finishing in sixth place and reaching the playoffs, where they ultimately lost to Espanyol with a score of 0-2 after a 1-0 lead.
