Real Oviedo vs Barcelona Preview and Prediction: A triumphant away game.

Latest team news for Real Oviedo vs Barcelona

Real Oviedo's Nacho Vidal (hamstring) and Luka Ilic (ankle) both had to leave the field in the defeat against Elche and are unlikely to recover in time. In addition, Alvaro Lemos (knee), David Costas and Ovie Ejaria (muscle) will also continue to be absent.

Federico Vinas returns after a one-match suspension and will compete for a starting spot with 36-year-old veteran Salomon Rondon – who has yet to score after four games for his new club. Paunovic may consider switching to a three-centre-back formation, with Lucas Ahijado and Rahim Alhassane playing wing-back. Midfield duo Santiago Colombatto and Santi Cazorla (40 years old) also hope for a chance to start.

On Barcelona's side, Fermin Lopez will be out for about three weeks due to a groin injury sustained in the win against Getafe. Midfielder Gavi is undergoing further knee surgery and has been absent since the end of August.

Goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen (back) and defender Alejandro Balde (hamstring) remain on the treatment list. Meanwhile, Ballon d'Or runner-up Lamine Yamal – who has missed the last three matches due to a groin injury – is still doubtful to play.

Manager Flick may rotate the squad, with Pau Cubarsi, Ronald Araujo, Marc Casado, Marcus Rashford, and Roony Bardghji all having a chance to return to the starting lineup after being benched in the previous match.

Latest football match prediction: Real Oviedo vs Barcelona

Barcelona are enjoying a period of great joy following the international break, having won three consecutive matches in just seven days across various competitions, scoring 11 goals and conceding only one.

A resounding 6-0 victory against Valencia in La Liga kicked off this run, followed by a 2-1 win away at Newcastle United in their Champions League group stage opening match. At the weekend, they capped off a perfect week with a 3-0 win against Getafe in the domestic league.

Ferran Torres scored a brace in the first half to give Barca control of the game at Estadi Johan Cruyff, bringing his total to four goals – the most for the team this season. Dani Olmo then sealed the victory with his first goal of the season midway through the second half.

Coach Hansi Flick admitted it was "not easy" to score three goals against Getafe when they defended in numbers, but was pleased that the team "played the way they wanted" to secure all three points. This result puts Barca second in the table, two points behind Real Madrid.

Barcelona travel to Estadio Carlos Tartiere on Thursday with a run of six consecutive La Liga wins – a feat that equals the club's historic record in the top flight (1929–1984). However, they have lost three of their last four away games against Real Oviedo (winning one).

Real Oviedo returned to La Liga after a 24-year absence thanks to promotion through the Second Division play-offs, but they faced many difficulties in the early stages, only earning 3 points after 5 rounds.

Their only point came from a hard-fought 1-0 victory against Real Sociedad at the end of August. Otherwise, they lost all four remaining matches without scoring a single goal against Villarreal, Real Madrid, Getafe, and Elche, most recently a 0-1 defeat against Elche last weekend.

Paunovic's attack has been struggling, scoring only one goal in five matches – the lowest in the league – leaving them 17th in the table, just one point above the relegation zone.

Nevertheless, Oviedo has a knack for scoring against Barca, having found the net in all 12 of their most recent La Liga encounters, with a total of 19 goals – their best record against the Catalan giants.

Despite being considered the underdog, Oviedo beat Barca 1-0 in their last encounter in La Liga in May 2001. They will be aiming for their first two consecutive wins against Barca in the top flight since 1961.
