Fertiberia BM Puerto Sagunto aim to bid farewell to the year at the Ovni with another victory

Fertiberia BM Puerto Sagunto will play their final home match of the year this Wednesday from 20.15 against Helvetia Anaitasuna.

The match brings together two teams in excellent form; the Pamplona side have put together their best run of the season with three consecutive victories and are fifth in the table with 15 points, one more than Fertiberia.

For this match, Pachi Martí has almost his full squad available. The notable absentee is junior international Nacho Plaza, who is recovering from the appendicitis operation he underwent on Friday. For Helvetia, coach Aniz has the return of Gregor Lorger in goal following his time in Asia, while Montavez, Castro and Garza are doubts.

Regarding the match, Helvetia coach Iñaki Aniz states that “Fertiberia are a well-coached team and, judging by what they have shown so far, it will be a high-scoring match, which clearly does not suit us. I suppose it will reach approximately 30 goals.”

For his part, the Valencian coach Pachi Martístates that “we are two teams on winning runs; Helvetia have a very well-balanced squad and are finding their path to victory. I expect a very close match, which will be won by whoever manages the final minutes better. We hope to give our supporters something to celebrate, as they will not see the team in competition again until 14 February.”

The build-up to the match will have an important charitable element, as the Valencian red-and-white club, together with the Sagunto Solidarity Food Centre, will set up a food collection stand so that all Fertiberia supporters can contribute through donations.
