Tenerife will be aiming to recover from a 1-0 loss to Cartagena when they take on Real Oviedo in the La Liga 2 round 41. Los Insulares failed to secure the Segunda Division survival, but they surely want to give fans some cheer in their last home game of the process. Anthony Landazuri is banned for Sunday’s clash, with fellow defender Cesar Alvarez likely to step up.
Los Azules, on the other hand, aim to move closer to the automatic promotion berth. As Tenerife have little to play for in the penultimate game of the season, we believe that there is a big value in betting on Veljko Paunovic’s men. The Serbian tactician is doing a great job with Oviedo and we predict that his men are going to prove their worth on the field. The likes of Ahijado, Chaira, and Lemos are out of contention with injuries for the away team.
Tenerife is a Spanish club based in the Canary Islands. Tenerife were founded on November 21, 1912, with the team playing home games at Heliodoro Rodriguez Lopez. The stadium was opened on July 25, 1925 and it can hold up to 22,824 spectators.
Los Insulares established them as the elite division club in the 1990s, but in 1999 the team suffer relegation to La Liga 2. Tenerife played in la liga two seasons more (2001/02, 2009/10), but they have been competing in lower leagues ever since. Los Insulares wear white and blue shirts when playing at home, whereas light green is the dominant colour of their away kit.
Tenerife participated in the UEFA Cup in the 1993/94 season, with the team eliminating the likes of Auxerre and Olympiakos before losing to Juventus in the last 16. Three years later the Spanish club did remarkably well to make it to the UEFA Cup semis. Las Palmas are considered Tenerife’s main rivals.
