Espanyol – possible starting line-ups:
“The Parakeets” were unable to cope with the obvious task for the season. After the penultimate place in the Primera and relegation from it, they obviously expected to return back from the very first attempt. Still, the team finished the cycle in 4th position. There were a few defeats, the last of which dates back to February 10, but the abundance of draws was hampered – there were 18 of them during the season, with a dozen occurring in the spring.
As a result, the Catalan club took 3 points less than Valladolid, which finished in 2nd place and achieved a direct ticket to the Primera. “The Parakeets” went to visit the opponent on Sunday and snatched a 1-0 victory in the end of the game there.
Sporting Gijon – possible starting line-ups:
“The Rojiblancos” were finally able to remind themselves. They are not only stuck in the Segunda, but they were in 17th place a year ago there. This time, the club managed to jump straight to 5th position.
The fight was won in the last rounds. Having won 3 times in 4 of the last matches, “the Red and Whites” were literally 1 point ahead of Racing, which remained in 7th position. The team hosted Espanyol in the first play-off match in Gijon. It was not possible to impose the game there; moreover, the guests scored their own, a winning one, in the end of the game.
