C.D. Leganés visits F.C. Cartagena this Friday (21:00) in Cartagonova, in a match corresponding to the twenty-seventh round of LaLiga SmartBank. The pepineros are looking for a new victory that allows them to continue climbing positions in the standings against an opponent in need who wants to get out of the lower zone.
C.D. Leganés face their next match with the morale that comes from their five consecutive victories since Asier Garitano's return to the bench. Last Sunday, the pepineros set their record of consecutive victories in the silver category, something that has placed them three points away from the direct promotion places and five from the leadership. However, the Blue and Whites are only focused on the next match, and this one comes this Friday against a Cartagena in need and in need of a victory to get out of the lower zone. C.D. Leganés faces the match with the whole squad available, since Asier Garitano does not count on any suspended player and recovers, with respect to the match against C.D. Tenerife, Luis Perea, already recovered from his physical problems.
F.C. Cartagena, to add to get out of the low zone
For its part, F.C. Cartagena faces the match with the need to add to escape from the relegation places. The Albinegros are only one point away from the salvation positions, so winning this Friday would allow them to get out of the red zone. The Cartagonova team have gone two games without a win, and have only won one of their last nine league games (2-0 against Real Oviedo). The arrival of Luis Carrión, third coach so far this season, does not seem to have changed the results so far, with five points in the five days he has been in the dugout, although he managed to score against rivals from the upper zone such as Real Sporting or Rayo Vallecano. The coach will not be able to count on the injured De la Bella and Álex Gallar. The match will be refereed by the Basque referee, Mr. Jon Ander González Esteban.
