Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Saturday’s football game at Estadio Municipal Cartagonova pits together Cartagena and Andorra, the two bottom-table sides. Los Blanquinegros have been struggling to find their best form of late, with the team losing to Burgos, beating Ferrol, while sharing the spoils with Eldense. As Cartagena are only five points clear of the relegation zone, this game is of big importance for the home side. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
Andorra, on the other hand, failed to win the previous three league matches. Eder Sarabia’s men are eager to escape the bottom four, but beating Cartagena on the road is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, there is a big value in betting on draw. Both Marti Vila and Christos Albanis are out of contention with injuries for the visiting team, while talented forward Jon Karrikaburu is pushing for a start.
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.
