Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Buoyed by back-to-back wins over Malaga and Burgos, Granada will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on Ponferradina on Matchday 31. Los Granadinos are eager to climb to automatic promotion places, and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at La Ponfe. Veteran forward Jorge Molina (40) should start from the bench once again despite impressing in the last league match with two goals and one assist, while Miki Bosch is likely to replace fellow defender Raul Torrente in the starting XI.
The 21-year-old has joined Miguel Angel Rubio, Ricard Sanchez, and Ruben Rochina in the recovery room. The visitors, on the other hand, failed to impress in back-to-back losses to Las Palmas and Cartagena, and we do not believe that they are capable of claiming a major scalp in the La Liga 2 round 31. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team.
