Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Eldense and Tenerife go head to head at Estadio Nuevo Pepico Amat in the opening match of Saturday’s program. Eldense aim to recover from a 2-0 loss to Sporting Gijon and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against los Insulares. Los Azulgranas produce much better showings at home than on the travels, with the team beating both Amorebieta and Burgos, while sharing the spoils with Mirandes and they are surely capable of matching Tenerife on Matchday 18. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team ahead of the visit of Tenerife.
Los Insulares, on the other hand, suffered a dip in form, with the team collecting only one point in total from the last five league matches. As Eldense are a real force to be reckoned with at home, we do not believe that the visitors are capable of grabbing something from the trip to Valencia. All Medrano, Mellot, Gallego, Rubio, Leon, and Alonso should miss out with injuries for the away team.
Highlighted Team (Tenerife):
Tenerife is a Spanish club based in the Canary Islands. Tenerife were founded on November 21, 1912, with the team playing home games at Heliodoro Rodriguez Lopez. The stadium was opened on July 25, 1925 and it can hold up to 22,824 spectators.
Los Insulares established them as the elite division club in the 1990s, but in 1999 the team suffer relegation to La Liga 2. Tenerife played in la liga two seasons more (2001/02, 2009/10), but they have been competing in lower leagues ever since. Los Insulares wear white and blue shirts when playing at home, whereas light green is the dominant colour of their away kit.
Tenerife participated in the UEFA Cup in the 1993/94 season, with the team eliminating the likes of Auxerre and Olympiakos before losing to Juventus in the last 16. Three years later the Spanish club did remarkably well to make it to the UEFA Cup semis. Las Palmas are considered Tenerife’s main rivals.
