Fertiberia BM Puerto Sagunto seek first home win against BM Villa de Aranda

Tomorrow from 18:30, Fertiberia BM Puerto Sagunto will welcome BM Villa de Aranda to the Ovni. The red-and-white side, who secured a meritorious win in Zamora, approach the match fully charged. Patxi Martí’s team go into the match aiming to build on the two points earned last weekend and thereby move further away from relegation. Fertiberia will attempt to secure their first home win after an opening spell in which the red-and-whites have performed better away from home. The Valencian coach will have all his players available after they secured passage to the Copa del Rey round of 16 without too much trouble. By contrast, Jacobo Cuétara’s side occupy seventh place in the table following a strong start to the league campaign, although in their last match GlobalCaja Ciudad Encantada won away at their ground, in a game in which the Aranda side made too many mistakes. In addition, Villa de Aranda are coming off a Copa del Rey victory over Viveros Herol Balonmano Nava, who could do little to resist (24–34). In short, Fertiberia will be looking to claim both points, bring joy to their supporters and head into the league break, forced by the activities of the national teams, with their sights set on the upper reaches of the table.
