2014-03-21Fertiberia BM Puerto Sagunto will face experienced BM Aragón at the Ovni tomorrow, from 6:30 pm, with the dual objective of recording a fourth consecutive victory and virtually securing survival, in the match corresponding to the twenty-third league round.
The step forward taken by the Valencian side against Frigoríficos Morrazo last round is intended to be consolidated on this occasion against a significant opponent. If successful, it would confirm an improvement in the red and whites’ play that began with victories over Helvetia Anaitasuna in Pamplona and Bidasoa Irún at home. Fertiberia coach Patxi Martí hopes his men’s recent wins will help them fight even harder for victory and make the most of their good form to move away from the relegation zone.
BM Aragón, meanwhile, travel to Valencia in a comfortable seventh position after a last-gasp victory over Juanfersa Grupo Fegar in Gijón. Mariano Ortega’s players have extensive experience in Spanish handball and will therefore make things difficult for the red and whites, as the Aragonese side seek to continue developing and move closer to the European places.
Ultimately, Fertiberia face a vital clash with the aim of moving even closer to safety. Although they would not mathematically secure survival, reaching 20 points would virtually keep them in the elite.
