PLAYOFF SCHEDULE FOR OVIEDO ASCENT

Espanyol have held their own against Sporting, and it will be the Parrot team that will face Oviedo for the final spot in the race for top spot in the First Division next year. Carrion’s team has the most recent precedent with the Barcelona team – the defeat of the Blues and the noticeable scandal in Cornella. Espanyol and Oviedo have met each other 93 times in their history.

Espanyol is a historical player in the league, but Oviedo is also a historical player. 23 years to the highest level should not hide this fact. This is evidenced by one fact: throughout history, parrots and carbayons have collided with each other 93 times. Duels have not been as common in recent times, but they have been present in the majority of professional football in Spain. In fact, only three teams in the country have faced the team from the principality’s capital the most: Sporting (98 matches), Deportivo de la Coruña (97) and Zaragoza (96).

The overall balance is in favor of the Catalans, who have won 46 times, although Oviedo’s record is not entirely bad: 31 wins and 16 draws.

Dates

The final opens this Sunday and starts at 18:30 in the packed Carlos Tartier Hall. The return match will take place at Cornell on Sunday, June 23 at the same time at 6:30 p.m. Oviedo dreams of playing for glory on a glittering stage.
