The Molinón-Quini hosts this conference a Sporting-Cartagena of special importance for the local teamwho hopes to endorse the first point achieved since Martí led the team with a victory that will allow him to start escaping from the relegation zone that sportinguistas have seen so close for a couple of weeks (follow the match live on As.com).
Sportingism has conjured up for this meeting. Iván Cuéllar, who will repeat under the sticks, has been in charge of removing the consciences of the rojiblancos followers in search of fundamental support so that his team returns to add three points at home. Sporting have not won in front of their fans for two months and, what is worse, they have lost their last four games in a stadium in Gijón that intends to return to being a cauldron for visitors.
José Luis Martí has recovered troops for this appointment, although he loses the fittest player in recent weeks; José Luis Rodríguez, scorer of the goal in Leganés, will miss the match for meeting with the Panama National Team. Neither will Pablo García, who saw the fifth yellow card in Butarque, although Vasyl Kravets returns, who could not play in Leganés for contractual reasons.
Martí has some doubts and, pending the return of Djurdjevic to participate in the Armenia-Montenegro, he has not advanced any call. Sporting’s line-up will depend on the full recovery of Fran Villalbadrops out last day, because this will mean a return to the 4-2-3-1 with more options for Gaspar to take the place of Cougar Rodriguez. If not, the 4-4-2 would remain with Ramírez as the second striker.

For its part, in the port city they wonder where the team with better results away from home would be. And it is that Luis Carrión’s side only got 15 of the 48 away points, a little baggage but that has been made up with its good dynamics as a local. But in the remaining ten games, the Albinegros want to maintain the good version, the one that occurred for example last day against Real Zaragoza (3-0). A large part of FC Cartagena’s aspirations to get into the playoffs lies in achieving regularity in this last stretch.
in El Molino, Carrión has practically all his men available. The only absence, without repercussion in the starting eleven, is that of captain De la Bella. Gallar, who was on the bench against Real Zaragoza, is fully recovered from his physical problems and is aiming for eleven to the detriment of Nacho Gil. He also returns, after a game of suspension, Boateng, but he will have to wait for his opportunity from the bench since the Bodiger-Tejera duo seems untouchable for the Catalan coach.
Therefore, except for the inclusion of Gallar, no block change in which part of the scoring options goes through Rubén Castro. Even though the striker has seven games without seeing the door, in the last one he gave two assists. He is a decisive footballer, with three classmates like Gallar, De Blasis and Dauda.
