The Oracle assesses the data, market pricing and team news to find the value.</p> <h3>Form and Context</h3> <p>Leonesa sit mid-pack with 23 points from 19, trending up over the last eight (1.50 PPG vs 1.21 season), but slipped into the break with two defeats and no goals against Huesca and Las Palmas. Real Sociedad B (21 points) also improved of late (1.50 PPG last eight) yet remain dire away: one win and eight losses on the road, just 0.33 points per game.</p> <h3>Venue Dynamics: León reduces volatility</h3> <p>Reino de León has smothered goal volume all season. Leonesa’s home matches average only 1.67 total goals, with the hosts scoring 0.56 and conceding 1.11 on average. They fail to score in 67% at home and hit under 2.5 in 78%. That arena effect collides with a Real Sociedad B side that concedes 2.00 per away match and struggles to impose their academy patterns once they leave Zubieta.</p> <h3>Goal Timing: Slow burn first halves</h3> <p>The first half is a grind. RS B away produce only 27% of their away goals before the break and concede early in chunks (0–30 minutes: seven goals against). Leonesa at home are also late-scorers (average first goal scored at minute 56). The result is a high chance of a halftime stalemate—Leonesa home HT draws in 56% and RS B away HT draws 44%.</p> <h3>Game State Management</h3> <p>Crucial split: Leonesa take 3.00 PPG when scoring first and collapse to 0.50 when conceding first. RS B away are worse—0.00 PPG when conceding first and an 11% away equalizing rate. If the hosts break through, the game tilts heavily toward a narrow home win with low totals.</p> <h3>Players and Matchups</h3> <p>Creativity for Leonesa runs through right-back Iván Calero (five league assists), whose delivery has fed decisive goals in home wins this season. Manu Justo has been the clinical edge in recent victories and is a logical focal point against an RS B backline that’s youthful and inconsistent away from home. For the visitors, Gorka Carrera is the headline (seven goals), and Lander Astiazarán offers secondary threat on the break—but the team’s away shot quality falls off, partly due to difficulties progressing through the thirds under pressure.</p> <h3>Injuries and Squad Notes</h3> <p>Leonesa are likely without Rodrigo Suárez and Rubén Sobrino (muscle issues lingering from December), trimming attacking depth but not altering the low-tempo, control-first home identity. RS B report no major absences but rotate among U21s; any boost in energy is undercut by away naivety.</p> <h3>Market Assessment and Value</h3> <ul> <li>Under 2.25 Goals around 1.92 stands out. With Leonesa home totals at 1.67 and a 78% home under 2.5 hit-rate, the blended probability comfortably clears the break-even 52%.</li> <li>Halftime Draw at 2.05 is supported by both teams’ draw-heavy opening halves and low early scoring rates.</li> <li>Leonesa -0.5 (1.91) is priced fairly but retains upside because RS B’s road profile (1-0-8) is the worst in the league. If you prefer extra protection, Home/Draw double chance is 1.22 but offers limited yield.</li> <li>Corners Under 9.5 at 1.95 aligns with the sub-9 combined corner averages and the expectation of controlled tempo.</li> </ul> <h3>Tactical Keys</h3> <p>Leonesa should funnel play wide, rely on Calero’s crossing and protect rest-defense against RS B counters. RS B’s best window is the final 20 minutes—73% of their away goals come after the break—so Leonesa’s substitutions and game management will be decisive.</p> <h3>Projected Script</h3> <p>A tight, attritional first half with few clean chances. Leonesa edge field position, then find a second-half breakthrough via a wide delivery—think 1-0 or 2-0. RS B struggle to chase without exposing shaky defensive spacing.</p> <h3>The Oracle’s Card</h3> <p>Primary: Under 2.25 Goals (1.92). Secondary: HT Draw (2.05), Leonesa -0.5 (1.91), Corners Under 9.5 (1.95). Prop: Manu Justo Anytime (2.60).</p> </body> </html>
