Albacete face the strength of Ponferradina

SD Ponferradina and Albacete Balompié will close out Liga Adelante matchday six on Monday in El Toralín.  The side from El Bierzo will be looking to continue their record at home, where they have picked up two wins in as many matches, in order to stay at the top end of the table. They will be faced with an Albacete team who, to the contrary, need points to escape the bottom zone. 

Team news  Brazilian striker Yuri de Souza, Ponferradina’s maximum goal-scorer with three, will miss the match through suspension. For the visitors, manager Luis César Sampedro will be without the injured Miguel Núñez, Israel Bascón and Fran Dorronsoro.

Views from the dugout  "Albacete play very well structured football and they have people debuting in the division who want to make a name for themselves", commented José Manuel Díaz, Ponferradina’s manager. For his part, Sampedro also praised his opponents: "The team has great build up play and having been doing well for a long time".
