FC Cartagena form and stats
The story so far in the La Liga 2 for FC Cartagena at their home stadium (Estadio Municipal Cartagonova) is 3 wins, 1 draw and 4 defeats. Game days at Estadio Municipal Cartagonova have recently become somewhat of a nightmare for Cartagena as they have lost three home games in a row. It hurts.
FC Cartagena enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Málaga's place. The match ended 2-1 with Álex Gallar and Alberto de la Bella scoring. Preceding that match was a defeat to Espanyol (1-3).
The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Cartagena have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found eight games) they have won five times, drawn two and lost one.
There will be little rest for Cartagena after this match as they are travelling to Pontevedra for a Copa Del Rey game in only four days.
FC Cartagena has scored 11 league goals at home this season, in 8 matches. 10 goals have been conceded. It's worth mentioning that 6 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
Sabadell form and stats
There's been little loot from Sabadell's travels as they have only collected 7 points from 8 away games in the La Liga 2. Sabadell only have 2 wins to counter their 5 defeats and 1 draw.
Sabadell delivered a 1-1 draw playing at home against Alcorcón (placed 18th) in their previous match; a La Liga 2 game. A loss against Real Oviedo was the result prior to that, in a home game.
Sabadell are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is one win, two draws and five defeats. From a total of eight matches.
Sabadell has another fixture away, a Copa Del Rey game, against Ibiza Islas Pitiusas in just three days. A tough schedule for the visitors!
The visitors have scored 7 goals from 8 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. As opposed to that, Sabadell have seen the ball go into their own net 11 times on the road.
Head 2 Head
