The Spanish visit the Anduva stadium on Sunday to face Mirandés (7:30 pm), a rivalry in which the parrots want to continue adding to consolidate their good start to the league, despite the doubts that have not yet been removed .
It will not be an easy date for Luis García’s men, as Anduva has suffocated the Spaniard in his last visits. So far he has played three times in a Burgos fiefdom and he has not been able to win any of the three.
The first time was on September 11, 1991 when the two met in the third round of the Copa del Rey. The first leg was played in Burgos and ended 1-1, although the parrots went on a roll when they won 4-0 at Sarrià.
In 2012, the Spaniard returned to Anduva in the quarterfinals of the Cup. In the first leg they won 3-2 but Mirandés came from behind with 2-1 (away goals have double value).
The third visit so far took place on the last occasion that Espanyol was a member of the Second Division, in 2021. The blue and white grabbed a 2-2 win from Anduvo (goals from RDT and Melamed), a draw that sour from the start as the parakeets chained three games without winning, but eventually opened dynamically good results (23 points from a possible 27), which prompted the Spanish to promotion, again, the inevitable purpose of this course.
There is a desire to end Anduva’s ‘jinx’ and win the Mirandés fiefdom once and for all. Luis García’s men will have an extra boost on Sunday from the more than 200 parakeet fans who have sold out tickets available for the visit.
