Match Facts:
Granada CF (20th, 2 pts):
- Granada's defeat to Atletico Madrid last matchday on Lucas Alcaraz's debut as manager was the fourth consecutive match which the Andalusian outfit have lost, and they desperately need to start putting points on the board if they are to stay in contention with the teams above them.
- Granada have yet to register a win in LaLiga Santander this season and have lost three on the trot at home, meaning they absolutely must win this game against Sporting, just two places above them.
- However, Granada have never lost at home to Sporting in LaLiga Santander. The Asturians' eleven visits to Granada have ended in nine victories and two draws for the home team.
R. Sporting (18th, 7 pts):
- After a good start to the season in LaLiga Santander with two wins and a draw in their opening three games, Abelardo Fernandez's men have suffered five consecutive defeats and slumped into the relegation zone.
- The Asturians have yet to win on the road, although Granada have not tasted victory at their home ground either.
- Duje Cop has scored three of Sporting's seven goals in LaLiga Santander this season. He managed a grand total of seven last term with Malaga CF.
