Cartagena, Recent FormAny Cartagena pre-match expectations for their last outing were misplaced, after an unexpected 1-0 away defeat by Málaga. Their share of possession in that meeting was 56%, while racking up 13 shots along the way, 2 of which were on target, in contrast to Málaga, who had 8 shots on goal with 3 on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 8 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 10 and seen valuable points lost. With just 2 clean sheets in the last 6 matches at home, Luis Carrión will be worried about the defensive frailties within his team of late.
It's been mixed fortunes for Cartagena at The Estadio Cartagonova recently, having won 3 and lost 3 of their last 6 home games.
Sporting Gijon, Recent FormGrabbing a valuable league point from their recent 0-0 draw against Alavés will have been seen as a reasonably decent result for Sporting Gijón. They came away from that fixture with a 51% share of the possession and clocked up 5 attempts on goal with 0 on target, in comparison to Alavés, who managed 7 attempts on goal, 1 of which were on target.
When it comes to attacking power Miguel Ángel Ramírez will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 8 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 will need to tighten up at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in all but 1 of their last 6 away games. After failing to get on the scoresheet in 10 away games out of 18 this season, Ángel Ramírez will be looking for a bit more consistency from his forwards.
Sporting will take some comfort from having only lost 1 of their last 6 games, but having managed just 2 wins shows there's room for improvement.
Aitor García will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for Sporting Gijón.
The previous match between these two ended without a goal and a share of the spoils, so it wasn't one to remember on that occasion.
Efesé have struggled to break down the Sporting defence in their past encounters having only managed to find the back of the net 2 times in their last 5 meetings.
With no real injury worries, Cartagena manager Luis Carrión will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Despite Pablo Insua (Cruciate ligament) being out for the rest of the season Sporting manager Miguel Ángel Ramírez will be pleased to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from ahead of this fixture.
