Fertiberia play another home final against Anaitasuna on Saturday

Fertiberia Balonmano Puerto Sagunto will face Helvetia Anaitasuna on Saturday 15 November from 18:30 at the Ovni. After the away defeat to direct rivals Ángel Ximénez Puente Genil, the red-and-whites will seek a home win to move out of the relegation places.

Red-and-white coach Vicent Nogués says the match will be difficult, but the team will step onto the Ovni’s blue court to win: “The team is on a positive run. Despite Saturday’s result in Puente Genil, I think we are playing well and it shows on the court; the players are comfortable. Despite the pressure of being in the positions we occupy, we are confident that things can go well.”

“We have to play well because Anaitasuna are a great team with many individual talents and a strong collective game. They are a powerful side, but we must make ourselves strong at home in front of our supporters to show them that we are doing things well. We will try to win Saturday’s match because it is crucial,” Nogués adds regarding the opponents.

The team, which was severely depleted by injuries in the opening league matches, is getting players back. The only long-term absentee is Marcos Dorado, “we have some players carrying knocks, but I believe they will be available on Saturday”, the coach concludes.
