La Liga may be on hold due to the international break, but Spanish football fans can watch all the action from the Segunda this weekend.
Tenerife have a slight lead at the top of the table, but Espanyol, Leganes, and Levante are all close. Real Zaragoza are also in with a shout at the top of the standings.
Racing de Santander did the domestic double over Cartagena last season. Racing won 3-0 away from home and 3-1 at home against their rival.
Cartagena will start the weekend at the bottom of the Segunda table. They took just five points from their opening 10 games. The team did draw two of their last three games in the Segunda.
Racing de Santander are 10th in the league after 10 games. The team is coming off a 3-2 win over Sporting Gijon, which ended a two-game losing streak. Racing failed to win any of their five away matches this season, drawing two and losing three.
Last season’s matches between Sporting Gijon and Real Zaragoza finished with the home team winning. Zaragoza won 1-0 away before Sporting posted a 1-0 home win in the reverse fixture.
Sporting are eighth in the league and coming off a loss last time out. Their 3-2 loss away to Santander ended a five-game unbeaten streak. Sporting are a perfect five wins from five matches at home this season.
Real Zaragoza are fifth in the standings and two points off first place. They aren’t in good form ahead of the match, having picked up seven points from the last six games. They lost three of their last four matches in the Segunda.
Eldense and Elche have never met in the Segunda. Sunday’s match will be their first-ever meeting in the competition. Elche are looking for a bounce back to La Liga, but right now, they aren’t playing like a team that will get promoted.
Elche are 14th in the standings and seven points off the top six. The Green Striped Ones took eight points from the last six matches in the division, scoring just four times.
Eldense haven’t done much better and go into the match with just one win in their last six Segunda games. They have the league’s joint-worst defence, with 17 goals conceded. Eleven of those goals were allowed in the last six matches.
FC Andorra and Alcorcon will meet for the first time in the Segunda on Sunday. Andorra go into the match on a three-game losing streak. Alcorcon, on the other hand, won just once in their last six matches.
FC Andorra were one of the surprise teams of last season. This season, they have struggled out of the gate, with just 10 points from 10 games. FC Andorra are on a three-game losing streak in which they scored just two goals.
Alcorcon are 20th in the standings ahead of the weekend. They took five points from the last six matches in the division. Alcorcon were outscored 10-7 by their last six opponents. Alcorcon are a good away team and went unbeaten in their last four road matches.
