FC Cartagena Espanyol betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This game places the sixteenth and second placed players in the championship respectively, and the difference in quality between the two teams is likely to bring the visitors closer to the three points. On the other hand, the home team must prioritize defensive processes and positional attacks to reach finishing zones and score the goal that could end this negative series of results. Thus, betting in favor of Espanyol de Barcelona is a valuable selection.

Preview
FC Cartagena and Espanyol face at Estadio Municipal Cartagonova, in a match for the 16th round of the Segunda División. These two teams have never met before, so this will be the first head‑to‑head between them. In this match the home advantage may play an important role, as both teams present significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis Cartagena

The home team is currently in the 16th position of the league, with 16 points won, after 4 wins, 4 draws and 7 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in a home match against Mallorca, by (1‑2). In the last match, they tied in an away match against Rayo Vallecano, by (0‑0). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 2 wins, 5 draws and 8 losses in away matches, with 14 goals scored and 23 conceded; against 5 wins, 4 draws and 6 losses at their stadium, with 16 goals scored and 15 conceded. For the league, FC Cartagena won 10 points out of 21 possible points, after 3 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses in the last 7 home matches. In their home league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (4 out of 7 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 15 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 7 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 8 home matches for all competitions there are 2 periods that stand out: they have conceded 4 of their 7 goals between minutes (61'‑75') and 3 of their 7 goals between (76'‑90').

FC Cartagena comes to this match with a draw, zero, in the trip to the field of Rayo Vallecano, in a game of the 15th round of the SmartBank League. It should be noted that the men of the house had most of the match on top, but did not have the aim sharpened to rescue the three points. With this result, the home team increased its winning streak, which has already been in five straight games for the championship, where it is in the fourteenth place in the league table with ten points.
Unsurprisingly, coach Borja Jiménez should play in the usual 4–4–2 to promote possession and positional attacks. The two most advanced players, responsible for putting their hair on end to the defenders of Espanyol de Barcelona are Eládio Jiménez and Rúben Castro. In turn, the central corridor should be formed by Álex Gallar, Pablo Clavería, José Ángel Jurado de la Torre and Sérgio Aguza. For this game the helmsman of the home team has all the players.

Confirmed Lineup: Marcin Bułka, Alberto de la Bella, Álex Martín, David Simón, Jean-Pierre Rhyner, Elady Zorrilla, José Jurado, Sergio Aguza, Adalberto Carrasquilla Alcázar, Álex Gallar, Rubén Castro.
Coach: Domingo Cisma.

Analysis Espanyol

The away team is currently in the 2nd position of the league, with 30 points won, after 9 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Leganés, by (2‑0). In the last match, they won in a home match against Real Zaragoza, by (2‑0). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 3 draws and 9 losses in away matches, with 9 goals scored and 13 conceded; against 8 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 21 goals scored and 8 conceded. In the last 7 away league matches Espanyol has a record of 3 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses, so they have won 11 points out of 21 possible. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (4 out of 7 matches). Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 17 of the last 24 matches have ended with Under 2,5 goals.

Espanyol returned to winning ways and leaned to first place, after beating Real Zaragoza by 2–0: Óscar Regano and Sergi Darder scored the “goals” of the triumph. After all, the visiting team totaled thirty points and occupies second place in the league, behind Mallorca with thirty-three.
For this match, away from home, coach Vicente Moreno should play in a 4–3–3 to prioritize offensive actions. Wu Lei, Adrián Embarba and Raúl de Tomas should be the team's offensive references. As far as the midfield is concerned, it should consist of Fran Mérida, David López and Óscar Melendo. There are no major absences for this match against FC Cartagena.

Confirmed Lineup: Diego López, Lluís López, Leandro Cabrera, Oscar Regaño, Adrià Pedrosa, Fran Mérida, Darder, Keidi Bare, Adrián Embarba, Wu Lei, Raúl de Tomás.
Coach: L. Ramis Monfort.
