Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Burgos play host to Granada at their Estadio El Plantio on day 7 of the new Segunda Division campaign. Burgos are eyeing their fourth consecutive win in the Spanish second tier, but they will have to showcase their worth on the field. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be pacey winger Alex, who has found his goal-scoring touch of late, while both Javi Lopez-Pinto and Inigo Cordoba remain doubtful.
The Andalusians, on the other hand, have drawn each of their last three league matches. Granada, though, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in the Andalusian derby against Malaga (2-2), which is probably the main reason why home win should be considered. Goalkeeper Luca Zidane remains in the recovery room, but he should be the only absentee in the away team, while midfielder Gonzalo Villar is pushing for a rare start.
Highlighted Team (Granada):
Granada are an Andalusian football club that plays in Spanish La Liga. The club were founded on 14 April, 1931 and they have yet to win the Primera Division trophy. El Grana, though, booked their place in the Spanish Cup final in 1959, but Barcelona proved to be a big catch for the Andalusian outfit.
Granada host their rivals at Estadio Nuevo Los Carmenes, the stadium that was built in 1995. The capacity of the stadium is 23,934. Granada’s main rivals are fellow Andalusian team Sevilla, but Real Betis are regarded as the club’s bitter rivals as well.
The likes of Yacine Brahimi, Juan Aguero, Gustavo Benitez, Pahinho, Denis Milar, Julio Montero Castillo, Capi, Cesar and Jose Mingorance are famous players that were part of the Estadio El Sadar outfit in the past. The original colour of Granada’s kits were blue and white, but after the Spanish Civil War the club chiefs bought new ones (red and white).
