New Stress Test in Oviedo

C.D. Leganés visits Real Oviedo this Saturday (5:00 p.m.) at Carlos Tartiere Stadium in a match corresponding to Matchday 2 of LALIGA HYPERMOTION 2026/27. The Pepineros face another demanding test against another recently relegated team in this tough start to the season.

After opening the season with a draw in Girona, Leganés now faces one of the toughest away games of the season against another promotion contender, Real Oviedo. Rubén Albés will again be without the injured Franquesa, Diawara, and Gøthler, as well as Unax, who is also out with an injury.

For its part, Real Oviedo is playing its second consecutive home game after drawing at home against Granada (0-0) on opening day. Aiming for its first win since returning to the division, coach Julián Calero may continue to sit out Ilyas Chaira, who is dealing with discomfort, though he will welcome back Aldasoro and Carlos Fernández.

More than 300 Pepineros fans will gather at the Carlos Tartiere Stadium to cheer on their team in this second matchday.
