Cartagena vs Leganes prediction 05.01.2025 | LaLiga 2

• Competition: La Liga 2
• Date: Sunday, 5th January 2025
• Kickoff: 14:30 UK / 15:30 CET
• Venue: Estadio Municipal Cartagonova (Cartagena)

Cartagena have been part of La Liga 2 for five consecutive seasons, but next year, they will likely play at the lower level. Cartagena collected only 14 points from 21 matches, so they are nine points behind the safety. The team from Estadio Municipal Cartaganova has struggled lately, as they have won only one point in the last three matches. In the previous game in 2024, Cartagena played 0-0 at home against Albacete. The home side played surprisingly well, so they picked up a point that should restore some confidence after two defeats. 

Leganes played last season in La Liga 2 and their only real goal for the 2024/25 is to avoid returning to the second level. Leganes are playing well for most of the season, so they are currently three points above the relegation zone. However, the last few games weren't so good, as Borja Jimenez's team lost two of the last three matches. In the previous game, they lost 5-2 at home against Villarreal. The guests completely outplayed the home side, so Leganes again stayed empty-handed. 

Cartagena vs Leganes pick: Both teams to score - yes

Both teams are solid at scoring, scoring at least one goal in their last five matches. The upcoming game between Cartagena and Leganes should be close, with goals for both sides.
