Gimnastic Tarragona hosts Lugo in round 42 of Spanish LaLiga 2. The match will be played on Sunday, June 9th at Nou Estadi de Tarragona (Tarragona)
It was clear that Gimnastic wouldn’t be able to save itself for several rounds before the end of the championship. However, the team did not play carelessly. On the contrary, it managed to beat strong Mallorca, coped with Alcorcon and gave battle to Elche. Total 7 points in 4 recent games - a decent result for the team relegating from Segunda. Even the leaders of the championship hardly earned points in Tarragona. Granada and Malaga beat Gimnastic with a minimum score; Albacete and aforementioned Mallorca were not able to earn points. Even Osasuna, which is the best club of the current championship, lost in the home field of Gimnastic.

Lugo predictably shared points with Tenerife in the 41st round. This draw guaranteed the team the preservation of a place in the division, and it has no tournament motivation in the final match of the season. Accordingly, one should not expect a proper attitude from the Lugo’s players. Moreover, the team plays away poorly. In this season, it managed to earn only 16 points in 20 away matches. For comparison, Lugo earned almost 2 times more points at home. Even in the last away games, when a positive result was needed, the team barely played a draw with Sporting and Extremadura. The visit to Las Palmas was unsuccessful at all (a 4-1 defeat).
In the last season, Gimnastic confidently beat Lugo in the home field, and I believe that it will succeed in the upcoming match. Lugo has accomplished its task for the season, and the team acts unconvincingly away. It is worth noting that Lugo scores little in the away games (only 13 goals in 20 matches). Hence, the team managed to score only 1 goal in the last three matches on the road. Gimnastic, by contrast, effectively performs at the finish of the season. The team smashed 9 goals in the last 4 games. And in the home field, it managed to score a total of 5 goals to the nets of Elche and Mallorca. During those 4 games, Gimnastic delivered a total of 60 shots on the opponents' target. It is not surprising that the team began to score with such activity.
Prediction for the match: Gimnastic to win
