Sporting Gijon
- Sporting Gijon have won one, drawn three and lost one of their last five LaLiga 2 matches.
- Andorra are currently 12th in the LaLiga 2 table with 35 points from 28 matches and Sporting Gijon are ninth with 42 points from the same number of games.
- That is true of their current form of one win, three draws and one defeat from their last five and also of their overall record this term.
- Both these teams like to play the ball on the ground, but Sporting Gijon’s 4-2-3-1 is more flexible and they like to get the ball wide quickly and then flood the box for a forward to be on the end of the cross.
- They like to push their full-backs on and are dangerous when they win the ball back in midfield as they can move it quickly.
FC Andorra
- FC Andorra have won two and lost three of their last five matches.
- A pair of wins over a poor Cordoba (4-1) and a resurgent Real Zaragoza (2-1) have given FC Andorra back-to-back victories.
- Andorra boss Carles Manso made some tactical tweaks to his 4-3-3 system a couple of games ago that seems to have paid off as his team have now won their last two games; in their last five matches they have two wins and three losses.
- FC Andorra’s 4-3-3 is a more possession-based approach and they are more likely to try and control the pace of the game by passing the ball patiently and creating overloads in wide areas.
Key Players
- Jonathan Dubasin is Sporting Gijon's danger man, having scored 12 goals in just 24 LaLiga 2 appearances this season.
- FC Andorra’s leading scorer is Daniel Villahermosa with six goals in 28 appearances this season, but Josep Cerda has bagged three in his last five games as the team have turned their fortunes around.

Prediction
The recent form of Andorra will give them a bit of a mental edge as Sporting have failed to win on their two previous trips to Andorra , but given the recent records of both we are going to go for a draw in this game with both teams to score (yes) and over 2.5 goals looking likely.
