Real Oviedo, owned by the Pachuca Group, is in a critical situation in Spanish football. Jesus Martinez is the majority owner of the club and must be aware that he is currently in serious trouble. Oviedo is last in LaLiga.

The struggling "Carbayones" have had many difficulties this season. In the same campaign in which they return to the first division, Real Oviedo could be relegated again to the second tier of Spanish football.

The season began with Veljko Paunovic. The Serbian manager managed to lead the team to promotion, and in the first eight LaLiga matches, he achieved two victories and suffered six defeats. However, the club did not appear to be in freefall.

The board's ambitions led to Veljko Paunovic leaving the bench, and Luis Carrion took over, a move that was not well received by the fans. Carrion only managed nine matches without a win (four draws and five defeats).

The current leader is Guillermo Almada. The Uruguayan manager has already overseen two matches in charge of the club, but has also yet to secure a victory (two draws). So far, the only victories of the campaign have been attributed to Veljko Paunovic.

In the relegation zone

Real Oviedo is currently in last place in LaLiga. The "Carbayones" have accumulated 12 points from 2 wins, 6 draws, and 10 losses. Next on the table is Levante, a club with 13 points (1 point ahead of Oviedo); Valencia occupies 18th place with 16 points (4 points ahead of Oviedo).

The current safe spot is held by Girona with 18 points (the same as Mallorca and Real Sociedad). Real Oviedo is only 6 points away from escaping the relegation zone in LaLiga. But the outlook is not promising. The Pachuca Group team has the fewest wins this season and has also scored the fewest goals. Real Oviedo's next match will be on Saturday, January 10th. Guillermo Almada's team will host Real Betis at the Carlos Tartiere Stadium.Unlike Oviedo, Betis is in sixth place in the overall standings, fighting for European competition spots.
