Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Sunday’s football game at Estadio Municipal Cartagonova pits together Cartagena and Levante, the two teams who are sitting in the opposite halves of the table despite the fact that only two points separate them. Cartagena desperately needed a win against Eldense and they managed to get one, with the team regaining a much-needed confidence, but they should not stop now. Talented Italian attacker Pocho Roman is pushing for a start after scoring as a substitute in the last league match, while there are no fresh injury concerns in the home team.
Los Levantinos, on the other hand, head into the match following back-to-back draws with Cadiz and Eibar. As Cartagena are tough to beat at home, yet another share of spoils is on the cards at Estadio Municipal Cartagonova. Levante forward Roger Brugue is a major doubt after suffering an injury in the last league fixture.
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.
