Sporting Gijon enter the fray in need of a win or draw if they are to stand any chance of avoiding relegation to Segunda B. Currently 18th, the hosts this week are shy of safety only by goal difference, and as a result have a real fighting chance of escaping the bottom three at the last possible opportunity this Sunday.
