Oviedo faces the last five league games calmly in the standings after adding three consecutive victories and reaching 49 points. The blue team now faces two straight games at home, against Ponferradina and Zaragoza, where those from Cervera want to mathematically seal their permanence in the Second Division. With the temperance that comes from being in the middle of the table, the final phase of the League presents several challenges for the blue team. Above all, in the individual section. This is the case of Sergi Enrich, Oviedo’s starting striker at the moment since Bastón’s injury, who continues to recover from him. Enrich has six goals this season, half of them scored in the last month, coinciding with the absence of the “Pichichi blue”, which is Bastón and has eight goals.
Enrich, then, has the individual challenge of being able to finish the course as the top blue scorer. For this, he currently needs at least three more goals in the five remaining league games: Ponferradina, Zaragoza, Sporting, Racing and Levante. The Menorcan veteran, who is living his first year at Oviedo, is now going through his best moment in the current season. Last Saturday he scored a winning brace against Ibiza that gave Oviedo victory at Can Misses (1-2). In the previous game, moreover, he opened the can against Lugo at the Tartiere (2-1) and weeks ago he scored the equalizer against Eibar (1-1). At the most demanding moment, with Bastón out of the game, Enrich has appeared to be the scorer that Oviedo needs, they think at the club.
A very striking statistic
Enrich is accumulating some very striking data in his first season at Oviedo. Statistics don’t lie: whenever the striker scores, Oviedo doesn’t lose. That is to say: his goals are worth their weight in gold, even more so in a team that has only been able to score more than one goal in two games (the last two days). Enrich has scored in five games, the balance being three wins and two draws. Lucas Ahijado, top assistant, is his best partner: he has given him four assists.
