Sporting Gijon, Recent FormHaving taken all 3 points, with a crucial 1-0 away win over Lugo in their last league game, Sporting Gijón will undoubtedly be very satisfied with their work. During that encounter they had 46% possession and had 10 attempts on goal with 2 on target, while their opponents hit 1 of their 14 shots on goal.
When it comes to attacking power Abelardo Fernández will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 6 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 6 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. They are showing great consistency at The Estadio El Molinón-Enrique Castro in finding the back of the net, having scored in 5 of their last 6 home games. The defensive quality of his current squad will be troubling Fernández of late, his defence having only notched up 1 clean sheet from their last 6 home games.
Whilst they have only lost 1 of their last 6 games there will be concern over the amount of points dropped with 4 draws from those games.
Goalscorer Cristo González will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Sporting Gijón.
Cartagena, Recent FormThe 1-0 home defeat to Villarreal B will not have sat easily with the Cartagena squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. Their share of possession in that meeting was 53%, while racking up 14 shots along the way, 3 of which were on target. Villarreal B had 14 shots on goal with 4 on target.
Luis Carrión will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 7 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 6 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They are showing great consistency in finding the back of the net, having scored in 5 of their last 6 games. They have not been performing well at all defensively, not delivering a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 matches.
It's been a mixed run of away form for Cartagena recently, with 2 wins and 2 defeats in their last 6 games on the road.
Alfredo Ortuño will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Cartagena.
After a good 4-1 win for Sporting Gijón in this pair's last league encounter, Cartagena will certainly be looking for a better result this time round.
There is only really one injury concern for the Gijón manager Abelardo Fernández ahead of this clash, with Pablo Insúa (Cruciate ligament) missing out, which gives Fernández a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
Cartagena manager Luis Carrión has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
