Huesca battles on despite winless streak

Despite a dire six-point deficit and a winless run that's stretched to two matches, Huesca is showing flickers of life after a spirited performance in their last two La Liga outings.

Oltra's tactical tweaks pay off

Coach José Luis Oltra has made some shrewd adjustments, reintegrating key players like Toni Abad and Liberto and giving more opportunities to underutilized talents like Javi Mier. The result is a more competitive Huesca, even if Jorge Pulido's late red card against Deportivo will force him to sit out the next match.

That crucial 1-1 draw against the Galicians was a testament to the team's resilience. Huesca came from behind to snatch a point in the dying embers, with Piña's late chance hitting the woodwork and Yeremay's follow-up strike being saved.

While the club's overall situation remains precarious, the display against Deportivo offered a glimmer of hope. Next up, they face a daunting trip to Eibar, a venue where they'll need to muster every ounce of determination to secure a vital three points.

Can Oltra's revitalized Huesca deliver a morale-boosting win and keep their top-flight status in play? The answer will likely be revealed in the cauldron of Eibar's Anoeta Stadium, where only the toughest of mentalities will suffice.
