Sporting Gijon host Eldense at Estadio El Molinon in Segunda División on Sunday 13 September 2026. Los Rojiblancos are looking to bounce back from a 2-0 defeat to Girona, where they created 2.14 expected goals and showed they were capable of better. At home, Gijon average 1.60 xG while conceding just 0.99 goals per match, establishing themselves as a strong attacking force on familiar turf. Eldense arrive in poor form, winless in their last six away matches and struggling significantly on the road. The visitors have conceded 2.33 goals per away game this season while scoring only 0.50, and have failed to score in 67% of their away fixtures. The statistical disparity between these sides is substantial.
Form and Head-to-Head
Gijon's home record shows five wins, one draw and four losses in their last ten matches, averaging 1.38 goals for and 1.31 against. Eldense's away form is considerably weaker, with just one win, two draws and seven losses over the same period, averaging 0.80 goals for and 1.80 against. The head-to-head record strongly favours the hosts: Gijon have won three of the last four meetings between these sides, including victories of 2-0, 1-0 and 2-1, with only a 0-0 draw breaking the pattern. Eldense have not beaten Gijon in their recent encounters.
Best Bet
Gijon 1-0 Eldense is the main selection for this fixture. The hosts possess clear advantages in both attack and defence, while Eldense's away record is among the poorest in the division. At 22Bet, a home win is available at 1.689, offering value given the underlying metrics. Gijon's home matches average 2.40 goals, suggesting an under 3.5 goals outcome is also plausible alongside a home victory.
Odds to Watch
22Bet offers Gijon to win at 1.689, the draw at 3.83, and an Eldense victory at 5.3. Given Eldense's inability to score on the road and Gijon's defensive solidity at home, the home win represents the most straightforward proposition in the market.
