Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Estadio Municipal Cartagonova will host Sunday’s football game between Cartagena and Huesca. Los Blanquinegros failed to extend their winning run to five games, with the team losing to Eibar in their last league match. Cartagena have little to play for in the season finale, but their pride will surely be at stake in their last home game of the process. Julian Calero should have a full squad to choose from for Sunday’s encounter.
Los Azulgranas, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 3-0 loss to Racing Santander. Huesca are sitting in the danger zone and seeing that they want this triumph more than Cartagena, away win should be considered. The good news for the visiting side is that Ivan Martos returns from suspension, but fellow defender Ruben Pulido remains in the treatment room. In the first half of the season Huesca crushed Cartagena 3-0.
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.
