On Sunday, June 23, Nuevo Arcángel Stadium will witness the Vuelta match between Cordova and the FC Barcelona Atléticowho will compete for promotion to the Second Division after the 1-1 draw in the first leg. If the score remains the same at the end of the 90 regulation minutes, an extra time will be played which, if it remains unchanged, will grant the Andalusian team promotion to LaLiga Hypermotion.
Córdoba has shown notable solidity this season, reaching 77 points in the regular phase of its group in First RFEF. His performance has been especially strong in the second half of the campaign, standing out at home, where they have only lost four of the 20 games played in the Nuevo Arcángel.
One of the key advantages for Córdoba is that it is enough for them to draw. If the extra time ends with a draw on the scoreboard, there will be no penalties and the Andalusian team will be promoted, thanks to having finished one place better than its rival in this crossing.
With these advantages, Córdoba prepares for the match with clear favoritism, especially after the 1-1 draw in Barcelona in a game where they deserved more. The team will seek to take advantage of the strength of its stadium and the defensive security it has shown in the last six games, where it has not known defeat.
For its part, Barça B, directed by Rafa Márquez, seeks to return to the category it has not stepped into since 2018. Although the team has shown a better performance away from home than in its own stadium this season, young talents such as Marc Guiu, Pau Víctor and Unai Hernández are the hope of the Barcelona reserve team to score the goal they need to move up the category. The pressure will be on Córdoba’s side and, as the minutes pass without changes on the scoreboard, it will increase on the green and white.
