Gijon
Sporting Gijon broke an important week. Sunday afternoon the Asturiƫrs take at home against Alaves, and then go to visit Leganes. Sporting Gijon is currently away on the wrong side of the relegation line and is five points of the safe seventeenth place, but if everything goes the plow can quickly leave the danger zone.
It is the newly appointed coach Rubi to steer Sporting Gijon towards calmer waters. In the first two matches under his leadership (Athletic Bilbao from 2-1 and Real Betis from: 0-0) the red-whites in any case made a good impression. It is of course not true that Sporting Gijon suddenly plays admirably, but especially in the defensive aspect of the team looks more stable.
This defensive solidity could well be the key direction can be safe seventeenth place, though the Asturiƫrs to go a long way. The board has certainly made its contribution through just before the transfer deadline Echiejile defender and striker Traore temporarily loosen at AS Monaco. In particular, the attracting Traore thing might be a good move. The Ivorian was in the past in the interest of clubs like Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur, but eventually went to Everton. England did not break through the rush hour, but for a club like Sporting Gijon he obviously is a topversterking. Traore probably starting this weekend still on the bench, all the local El Comercio expects that he will get minutes.

Alaves
Alaves is having a great season. Not only do we find the candidate back to a creditable twelfth spot in the Primera Division, the blue whitening also stand again in the semifinals of the Copa del Rey. The first leg visiting Celta Vigo last Thursday ended in a goalless draw, so the decision will fall into their own Mendizorroza in the return next week. There’s a lot at stake, because the finalist will almost certainly with a Europa League ticket to get.
Conservation body is obviously a priority, but with a lead of eleven points in the relegation zone coach Pellegrino can afford to rotate this weekend. That is exactly where the local press is counting on. who Sunday will all get exactly rest is still unclear but it is expected that Pellegrino quite the broom by will pick the starting line to optimally prepare his team to return from next Wednesday. Players like Katai, Kristicic, Santos, Ortola and Vigaray came this season hardly mentioned, while the wintry reinforcements Romero and Ely have played even a single minute left in La Liga. However, chances are that it Sunday at the El Molinon will be on the kickoff.
