CD Tenerife is placed in the 20th spot (0 points, 0W – 0D – 5L) in the Spanish Segunda. They are the rock bottom in the second division of the Spanish football. This fact is unbelievable news. CD Tenerife was one of the favourites to promote this season. The club sacked Gonzalo Arconada (former coach) two rounds ago and it seems that the players wanted to happen this resigning. CD Tenerife has spent too much money this summer with important signings to return into the Spanish Primera. They signed up Julio Alvarez, who made an excellent and superb season in Real Mallorca last year. They have just signed up a new coach. Juan Carlos Mandiá (coach) will be the responsible to improve CD Tenerife’s streak. He is an experienced manager in Spanish Segunda and he almost promoted coaching Hercules CF two seasons ago. Juan Carlos Mandiá has called the following squad for this crucial match: Luis García, Sergio Aragoneses, Marc Bertrán, Aitor Núñez, Carlos Bellvís, Gregory Beranger, Melli, Ezequiel Luna, Antonio Hidalgo, Ricardo León, Omar Ramos, Juanlu Hens, Julio Álvarez, Mikel Alonso, Iriome, Nino, Natalio, Dani Kome y Moreno. They will have two misses in the back part of the team. David Prieto (defender) and Pablo Sicilia (defender) are slight injured.
Warning
FC Cartagena is placed in the 13th position (6 points, 2W – 0D – 3L) in the Spanish Segunda. They have won two matches and lost three. They did an excellent last season. FC Cartagena started quite good after they promoted previous season from Segunda B. They have always suffered problems to beat strong teams at home but they were the best team away from home last year. Juan Ignacio Martinez (FC Cartagena’s coach) is a quite good strategist and then they play away from home FC Cartagena are usually being very dangerous because they had fast players and they enjoy developing this game style, steal and fast attack. They destroyed FC Barcelona B (5-1) at home with this formula. They love to play with teams which want to hold the ball because they can make fast counter-attacks with high effectiveness. They will have several important absences, overall in defense. Cygan (central defender), Bidari (defender), Pablo Ruiz (defender) and Maldonado (offensive midfielder) are injured. Cala (central defender) is suspended. Victor (experienced striker) neither has been called. This is the called squad and I think it’s highly probable that they repeat the same eleven: Goalkeepers: Rebollo and Casilla. Defenders: Clavero, Expósito, Txiki, Botelho, Chus Herrero y Manu. Midfielders: Longas, Mariano, Riau, La Fuente, Toni Moral, Julien, Iñaki Muñoz y Keko. Strikers: Toche and Goiria.
Looking for the First Win
FC Cartagena has lost their last 3 matches in a row. FC Cartagena’s supporters are starting to discuss Juan Ignacio Martinez (coach). The team must win today if the coach doesn’t want problems with their home crowd. This Spanish Segunda is like a roller-coaster and if you can’t hold yourself well, you will have big problems because this is a long tournament. They have gotten worse in defense in last matches. The last one, against Cordoba CF, they conceded two goals in two corners and that fact is a lack of concentration. They will have decisive absences in defense and they will have to encounter a tough team with superb strikers for this category, Nino, Natalio and Kome for example. CD Tenerife has to win this match. This is a must win for them. They have managed 5 losses in a row and they were clear candidates to promote to Spanish Primera at the beginning of this season, but they have wasted too many time and points at the moment. I think is a great chance to support CD Tenerife in a full Stadium to trespass the crisis to the guests. Juan Carlos Mandiá is a good manager and I’m quite sure that they will improve their defensive skills and they will make a great pressure in every part of the pitch to catch the three points in this match. I will choose AH (-0.25) because Juan Carlos Mandiá only has stayed for a week in the Island.
