Looking at the teams' recent form, Real Oviedo has been on a strong winning streak, securing victories in their last three matches prior to this game. Almería, although having a recent 5-0 victory, had a more mixed run. Considering their recent head-to-head record, where Real Oviedo has proven to be a difficult opponent for Almería, this result is not entirely surprising despite Almería's higher home team rate. Both teams committed an equal number of fouls (14) and received the same number of yellow cards (2), suggesting a fiercely contested battle.
Real Oviedo's recent form shows a strong ability to grind out results, with four wins and a draw in their last five games. Almería, despite their firepower, appear less consistent, especially after the game where they accumulated 3 red cards. With the second leg to be played at Real Oviedo's home ground, Carlos Tartiere, Almería will face a tough challenge to overturn the deficit, especially given Real Oviedo's strong home form and their recent history against Almería. Real Oviedo will look to capitalize on their momentum and strong defense to secure their place in the Promotion Final.
