Prediction: 1-0
Fuenlabrada
Sunday’s football game at Estadio Municipal Cartagonova pits together Cartagena and Fuenlabrada, the two teams with entirely different ambitions in the remainder of the season. Cartagena are eyeing a place in the playoffs, while Fuenla’s main goal is to secure the Segunda Division survival. Ruben Castro is not getting any older, and we predict that the former Real Betis striker will make life difficult for the opposition back-line.
The 40-year-old has already netted 13 goals in the 2021/2022 La Liga2 campaign. Fuenlabrada, on the other hand, desperately needed a win against Las Palmas, and they managed to get one. The relegation strugglers, though, produce much better displays at home than on the travels, which is the main reason why home win should be considered. Both Juanma and Velasco Jano miss out with injuries for the visiting side.
Highlighted Player (Richard Boateng):
Born in Accra, Ghana on July 10, 1992, Richard Boateng is a midfielder who plays for Alcorcon in Segunda Division. Boateng is a product of Liberty Babies football academy, with the Ghanaian starting his senior career at Liberty Professionals. In 2010 he moved to Spain, signing a deal with Granada.
During his spell with the Andalusian outfit, he mainly played for Granada B, but he spent a couple of years at loan at Cadiz B and San Roque as well. Richard Boateng made only one appearance for the Granada senior team in the league.
The Ghana international played for the likes of Aris Limassol, Extremadura, Melilla, and Oviedo as well before joining Alcorcon in 2019. His primary position is central midfielder, but he is used as an attacking midfielder as well. His preferred foot is right, and his contract with Alcorcon should expire in June 2021.
Highlighted Team (Fuenlabrada):
Nicknamed los Kirikos, Fuenlabrada is a Spanish football club that competes in Segunda Division. Fuenlabrada was founded in 1975, with the team securing promotion to La Liga 2 for the first time in the 2019/20 season.
Fuenla finished the campaign in the 8th place in the standings, and, as a result, they missed out on a place in the Segunda division playoffs. Los Kirikos wear blue shirts and blue shorts when playing on home soil, while their away kit is mainly red. Estadio Fernando Torres is the club’s home ground. The venue was named under legendary Spanish attacker Fernando Torres, who scored 38 goals in 110 appearances for La Furia Roja on the international stage.
“El Nino”, who was born in Fuenlabrada, played for the likes of Atletico Madrid, Liverpool, Chelsea, Milan, and Sagan Tosu during his professional career. Dioni is leading Fuenlabrada all-time top scorers list as he netted 47 goals in 82 appearances for the club.
