Sanse head to Ceuta at 14:00, hoping to keep their impressive away run alive after last week’s defeat at Zubieta to Mallorca.
Ceuta’s Alfonso Murube stadium crackles with tension, a media hotspot that could explode at any moment. The atmosphere is electric. The backdrop isn’t the marathon journey—last season they made the same trek without a migration crisis—but the recent upheaval in the enclave.
The blue‑shirts arrive after a home loss yet carry the sweet afterglow of a dominant display in Andorra. They’ve collected seven points from nine away fixtures and will chase a tenth this Saturday. Last season they drew 0‑0 there in retro kits.
Ansotegi will miss the injured Orobengoa and juggle several doubts. Adjabeng Andrews is on the sidelines after a scare, while the centre‑back duo Ayo and Calderón remain questionable. Still, Sanse boasts two quality signings, and the first‑team break allows Marchal—who has been training with them—to potentially feature, though his name isn’t on the official list. Beitia’s availability also hangs in the balance, and if the winger spots a spot, either Astiazarán or the in‑form Dani Díaz may sit out to make room for the Navarrese.
Ceuta sit on a solitary point, hampered by market woes that keep players away from the enclave. Their coach José Juan Romero’s jubilation after a 101st‑minute equaliser with Valladolid last week captures their struggle. Sadik won’t travel after being sent off. Can Sanse break their away‑form streak and climb the table?
