How is the team ?: “He has recovered well. We have had time to train and rest. It was 45 minutes that came in handy as an introduction to the competition. It is early to be tired, but we will see who we are going to count on, because we have five changes and not just for the wear, also due to the tactical issue. There will come a time when the fatigue will take its toll and we will rotate. If I could put them all today I would put them. They have trained spectacularly. It comforts me to know that everyone will have minutes and their reward. “
Premiere with victory against Albacete: “We said in the preview that if we were in a hurry we were going to make a mistake. The goal came soon, we did things right and there was no rush. The team was thinking about what they needed and how they wanted to do it. In Cádiz we will have 90 minutes, more time to do things, but the other day it was a game with rhythm, well executed with what we had to do. “
Already second match of competition: “We played the first game with a lot of tension and we have already passed that, with everyone watching us … We have got rid of it. I think it is an advantage to have played those 45 minutes. well and I hope we know how to take advantage of it against Cádiz “.
Analysis of the rival: “I sense that Cádiz is still a good team, that it will continue to fight for promotion, but until we see it work we will not know. I sense that they will continue with their idea. The coach continues, things are going well for him, he is achieving his goal … I don't see a reason why they have to change anything. We are relying on what they did before the break. Cádiz is always a difficult team, it doesn't give you anything. Let's see how the two teams are physically, especially when the last few minutes come. “
Cádiz, leader: “What I do not want to see are doubts. We are not in a position to doubt, but to obtain what we need: points. I want the team to go out to play as they trained today, to leave it all to them. We can fight for promotion and if we want to we have to beat the best. The result the other day also gave us peace of mind, but I don't want doubts, because we can play Cádiz perfectly from you to you. “
What is the key to the match ?: “I have realized that now scoring first is very important, because the teams do not have the physical fullness to turn the game around. Except in yesterday's Elche-Extremadura, which tied, the rest of the matches were won by the one who scored first. I don't know if it was a question of statistics, but if it continues today, it can be a factor to take into account. It cannot be definitive, but it is more important than before. “
Paco Jémez recovers gunpowder above
The franjirrojo coach recovers for this match all the winter transfers, except Isi by sanction.
