Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Tenerife and Ferrol face each other at Estadio Heliodoro Rodriguez Lopez in what is expected to be one of the most interesting games of La Liga 2 round 38. Los Insulares aim to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Real Oviedo and they have no other option but to adopt an attack-minded approach against Ferrol. Head coach Asier Garitano will be watching the game from the stands due to the suspension, while both Fernando Medrano and Waldo Rubio are rated doubtful for the home side.
The Galicians, on the other hand, suffered a dip in form, with the team losing to both Villarreal B and Mirandes in the last two league matches. Considering that Tenerife are a real force to be reckoned with at home, home win should be considered. Both Alvaro Vadillo and Luca Ferrone are injured for the visiting side, while Oscar Pinchi faces race against the clock to be fit for Monday’s encounter.
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.
