Betting tip and prediction for this match between Cartagena vs Eldense
The best prediction for this clash is that the match will feature fewer goals. Cartagena has struggled offensively at home, netting just eight goals. Similarly, Eldense is also underperforming, recently lacking good form. Furthermore, less than 40% of both teams’ fixtures resulted in over two goals. We anticipate a match led by the visitors, yet with fewer clear-cut scoring opportunities than the odds suggest. Consequently, betting on “less than 2.5 goals” would be a prudent choice.
Cartagena and Eldense are set to face off at Cartagonova Municipal Stadium, in a match of the 34th round of the Adelante League. The last encounter between these teams in this competition, on 01‑09‑2024, saw FC Cartagena winning 1‑2. In the recent history of direct matches over the past three years, the record stands at two draws and one win each for both teams from their last four meetings. Special attention should be given to the home/away dynamics; while this clash features the 22nd and 19th positions in the overall standings, it is in fact a battle between the 22nd ranked side at home and the 13th when playing away.
Team analysis: Cartagena
Currently, the home team occupies the 22nd position with 17 points, having won 4, drawn 5, and lost 24 matches. In their penultimate fixture, they recorded a 2-2 draw away to Deportivo La Coruña. Most recently, they drew 2-2 at home against Castellón. Their performance at home shows little deviation from their away form, with 9 points accrued at home from 8 goals scored and 21 conceded, while they garnered 8 points away, scoring 14 goals and conceding 39. In their last 10 league fixtures, Cartagena has seen 2 wins, 2 draws, and 6 losses from 30 available points. A recurring scoreline at home after 90 minutes has been 0‑1, which occurred in 6 of their 16 matches. Defensive solidity remains a challenge, as they have conceded at least one goal in their last 10 league appearances. Home games often see few goals, with fewer than 3 goals scored in 11 of the last 16 fixtures. Over 33 league games, they have only succeeded in overturning the score in 1 of the 21 matches in which they conceded first. Notably, in their last 16 home matches in this competition, they scored 3 of their 8 goals in the initial 15 minutes.
Despite lacking strong prospects for the season, Cartagena’s attack has been improving, managing to draw against Castellón 2-2 in their latest outing, with goals from Daniel García and Salim El Jebari. Operating in a traditional 5-4-1 formation, the team seeks a balanced approach, with Luis Muñoz and Andy Rodríguez both playing a significant role in both defensive duties and supporting the attack. Central striker Alex Millán finds space amidst defenders and is pivotal in the team’s attacking plays. Midfielder Luis Muñoz and forward Gastón Valles are injured and will miss the upcoming match.
Team analysis: Eldense
The visiting team, Eldense, is currently positioned 19th with 36 points, having secured 10 wins, 8 draws, and 15 losses. In their last outing, they drew 0-0 at home against Burgos, following an away defeat by Elche (2‑0). Their home and away performances show little distinction, with a tally of 20 goals scored and 25 goals conceded at home, compared to 14 goals scored and 22 conceded as visitors. Over the last 10 away matches in the league, Eldense’s record has been 3 wins, 2 draws, and 5 losses, with 11 points gained from 30 possible. The most recurring scoreline at half-time this season has been 0‑0, seen in 8 of their 17 games. Their away fixtures also indicate a tendency towards low-scoring matches, with 7 of their last 16 concluding with fewer than 1.5 goals. From 33 games in the competition, they have conceded the first goal on 14 occasions and have managed to turn the score around only once.
The Eldense side has seen a dip in performance recently in the Adelante League, managing only a draw against Burgos at home in their preceding match. They typically deploy a 4-2-3-1 formation, with Juanto Ortuño as a key offensive figure, leveraging his match intelligence and finishing ability in the final third. The playmaking responsibilities fall upon Marc Mateu, Victor García, and Victor Camarasa, a trio that effectively controls the match’s tempo, ensuring quality attacking support while pressuring opponents in their defensive half. However, left winger Javi Llabrés remains sidelined due to injury and will not feature in the upcoming match.
The best prediction for this match
Under 1.5 goals in the 1st half (live betting)
Under 3.5 goals (guess for live, double or triple bet)
Under 3.0 Asian goals (risky guess)
