Almería is looking to break its losing streak (one point from the last twelve) this Saturday (9:00 p.m.) at the Carlos Tartiere, a place that has been good lately when changing the trend. Until 2018 he did not achieve his first victory, without losing since then, with seven points in his last three trips to Oviedo lands. On the Day of the Immaculate Conception in 2018, Fran Fernández’s men stormed Oviedo, a comeback included. Mossa put the hosts ahead two minutes into the game, Almería reacting quickly to turn the score around, with goals from Corpas and Juan Carlos Real in the 14th and 18th minutes, respectively. Anquela’s men finished with an expulsion, when Javi Hernández saw the second yellow card with fifteen minutes to go.
In 19-20 neither of the two teams managed to score in a game that ended up costing Pedro Emanuel his job, with Guti appearing to replace the Portuguese. The following year, Almería prevailed again, with a brace from Corpas. The bañusco opened the can in the first act from the penalty spot, neutralizing his now teammate Blanco Leschuk in the second half and hitting Corpas again in the final stretch. Before this streak, the Almerians had not won in Oviedo, with one draw and three defeats. In October 2002 they met for the first time, dividing the points, with goals from Oli and Juanlu. The people from Oviedo won 15-16 (1-0, Toché’s goal), 16-17 (2-0, Nando and Toché) and 17-18 (Fidel, Toché and René, own goal).
