Real Madrid started their campaign with a 1-0 victory over Osasuna, courtesy of a Kylian Mbappé penalty, but the performance showed signs of rust under Alonso’s new system. The return of Antonio Rüdiger strengthens their defense, though injuries to Jude Bellingham, Ferland Mendy, Eduardo Camavinga, and Endrick pose challenges. Real Madrid have not lost to Oviedo since 1998 and will look to exploit their historical dominance.
Real Oviedo, back in La Liga after 24 years, struggled in their opener against Villarreal, losing 2-0. With Salomón Rondón leading the attack and Santi Cazorla providing experience off the bench, they aim to upset the odds at home. However, injuries to Álvaro Lemos, Lucas Ahijado, and Jaime Vázquez, plus Alberto Reina’s suspension, weaken their squad. Oviedo’s last meeting with Real Madrid ended in a 1-1 draw in 2001.
Real Oviedo vs. Real Madrid Over 3.5 Goals @ +180 as per BetMGM
Given Real Madrid’s defensive solidity in their opener and Oviedo’s early season struggles, a low-scoring match seems likely, with Real Madrid potentially securing a narrow victory.
| Combo Option | Odds |
| Real Madrid – Full Time + Most Corners | -305 |
| Real Madrid – Full Time + Under 4.5 – Total Goals | -205 |
| Real Madrid – Full Time + Kylian Mbappé – Yes – To Score | -200 |
Considering Real Madrid’s superior squad and historical edge over Oviedo (W9 D3 L4 in 18 meetings), along with Oviedo’s defensive vulnerabilities, a comfortable win for Los Blancos is probable. However, Oviedo’s home support could lead to a goal.
Final Prediction: Real Madrid 2-0 Real Oviedo
