Prediction: 2-0
Eldense
Cartagena play host to newcomers Eldense at their Estadio Municipal Cartagonova in the opening match of the season. The Black and Whites were having their ups and downs in preseason, but the bookies still see them as slim favourites to win Sunday’s clash. Even though both Gonzalo Verdu and Pedro Alcala miss the game with injuries, home win should be considered as the likes of Gonzalo Verdu, Hector Hevel, Juan Carlos Real, and Luis Munoz have joined the club in the summer transfer window.
The newcomers, on the other hand, are eager to prove their worth on their La Liga 2 debut, but given the lack of experience in their squad, we are tempted to put our money on the hosts. You should bear in mind that there are no injury worries in the visiting team ahead of Sunday’s game.
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.
