Sporting Gijon will host Leganes at El Molinon on Saturday (November 19) in the Segunda Division.
The hosts have had mixed results in the league this season but have particularly struggled for form recently. Sporting are coming off a 1-1 draw against last-placed Malaga, who scored a late equaliser. Gijon are 11th in the standings with 21 points from 15 games.
Leganes, meanwhile, have begun to find their feet after and abysmal start to their season. They're coming off a 2-1 win over SD Ponferradina 2-1 in the league. Last weekend, Juan Munoz and Jose Arnaiz got on the scoresheet before they got knocked out by Gernika Club on penalties in the first round of the Copa del Rey.
The visitors are a place and a point behind their weekend opponents in the standings and will leapfrog them with maximum points.

Sporting Gijon vs Leganes Prediction
Gijon's latest result snapped their four-game winless streak, and they will now look to build on that. They have won three of their last four games at home and will look to continue in the same vein.
Leganes, meanwhile, are unbeaten in their last four league games. They have, however, won only two of their eight away games this season and could lose this one.
Prediction: Sporting Gijon 1-0 Leganes
