Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Real Oviedo will look to put an end to their four-game winless run in Segunda Division when they take on Cartagena in the La Liga 2 round 8. Los Azulones have been struggling in front of goal in the first half of the season, but, on the other hand, they look solid at the back. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team, but both Viti and Rama are pushing for a start.
The Black and Whites have a chance to climb to automatic promotion berth, but beating Real Oviedo on the road is easier said than done. A close encounter is on the horizon at Estadio Nuevo Carlos Tartiere, and we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on draw. Experienced forward Alfredo Ortuno should be the only absentee in the away team.

Sergi Enrich is a product of Mallorca’s youth academy. The 181-cm-tall striker was born in Ciutadella, Spain on 26 February, 1990 and he began his senior career at Mallorca. Enrich played 83 league games for Mallorca B, while making 6 appearances for the first team between 2010 and 2013.

The Spanish attacker made 35 appearances for los Ameros in the 2015/2016 season, scoring seven goals in the process. Sergi Enrich’s market value was €4 million in July, 2016 and it has to be noted that his contract with Eibar expires on 30 June, 2018. His maternal family name is Ametller.
Highlighted Team (Cartagena):
Founded on July 25, 1995, Cartagena is a Spanish football club that plays in La Liga 2. Los Boquerones dropped to Segunda B in the 2011/12 season, but following an eight-year absence, they returned to the Spanish second tier.
Cartagena play home matches at Cartagonova, the venue which can hold 15,105 spectators. The stadium was built by CMMP Arquitectos in 1987, and opened the following year. Real Murcia are regarded as the club’s main rivals, with the two teams facing each other in the Derbi of the Region of Murcia. Toche is leading Cartagena’s all-time top goalscoring chart with 39 goals.
Los Boquerones are well known for their black shirts with white stripes. Red, on the other hand, is the dominant colour of the club’s away kit. It has to be noted that Cartagena have never competed in la liga. The club’s highest ranking in the Segunda Division came in the 2009/10 season when they finished the campaign in 5th position in the standings.
