Insights:
  • FC Cartagena have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Copa Del Rey. That game, against Ibiza Islas Pitiusas, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Tenerife.

These teams have little in common geographically as Tenerife have to travel 2000 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
