ElPozo receives Santa Coloma, former team of coach Javi Rodríguez, with the obligation to win to continue fighting for a place to play in the Spanish Cup
ElPozo plays three crucial points today with three days to go before the first round, which will see the names of the eight teams qualified to play in the Spanish Cup in February. With this pressure, the team from Murcia faces the visit of Industrias Santa Coloma (12:00). The team led by Javi Rodríguez, former coach of today’s rival, lost at least against Movistar Inter last day with a goal from Gadeia, despite the good game and deserves even more than the draw.
For this game, Javi Rodríguez recovers Taynan, although he maintains the loss of captain Fernando and goalkeeper Molina. The call is completed by goalkeeper Palazón and Víctor Requero, from the subsidiary, and Mario Cárceles, from the youth team.
The precedents between ElPozo and Industrias Santa Coloma are clearly in favor of Murcia. Since 2009, the Catalans managed to win only once in Murcia, despite having met in 15 games. They achieved that victory in October 2016, when they won 2-5.
Likewise, the last three clashes between the two teams have resulted in three wins in Murcia, two of them at home, and a draw. Exactly that equalizer (2-2) came in the last game of the last regular season, a result that qualified the Murcians for the play-off at the expense of the rival they face today.
