The Cuenca team will be the host of the Match of the Day on matchday 19 of the Plenitude League, this Saturday at 7:00 p.m., coinciding with the visit of Bidasoa Irun to “El Sargal”, in a duel broadcasted by the LALIGA+ App and, in open, on Teledeporte.

The team led by Lidio Jiménez is in a comfortable seventh place with 18 points and wants to climb positions with the ambition to occupy European places.
