Fertiberia BM Puerto Sagunto, weighed down by the pressure of necessity, will seek a victory against BM Huesca this Saturday from 20:00 that would loosen the relegation noose currently tightening around them, in the match corresponding to the 27th league round.
For the red-and-white side, winning in Huesca would be a major boost at the bottom of the table, moving them away from relegation and giving them breathing space before they host the league champions, F.C. Barcelona, next round. Fertiberia will therefore have to give everything, and more, to beat BM Huesca, who have compressed the danger zone even further after their home defeat to Naturhouse La Rioja. For tomorrow’s important match, Patxi Martí will be unable to call upon the injured Sasa Dukic.
As for BM Huesca, in the last league round they could only draw away at Gijón, recording an 18–18 scoreline at the Juanfersa Grupo Fegar court, but it was enough to retain fourth place. José Nolasco’s men are completing an outstanding season, sitting among the top five teams and battling to play in European competitions next season. The Huesca side will attempt to make it seven matches unbeaten and open up some distance from their pursuers, Reale Ademar León.
Ultimately, Fertiberia need a positive result to improve their position in the table after an unfavourable round, which has left them two points above relegation. It will undoubtedly be a difficult match, but not an impossible one, as the red-and-white side have the resources to stand up to a team currently enjoying a very rich vein of form.
