Without the security of a goalkeeper like Manu Herrera guarding the sticks, the team has fallen into a pattern of strong away performances that keeps coaches hopeful. After two consecutive triumphs on the road in recent days, the belief grows that a return to Antonio Solana could be enough to maintain the lead for the fifth group and keep pressure on their closest rivals, with La Nucía staying in the shadow of that pursuit.
The black squad is set to take the field before their opponents this morning, at 11:30, in the second round of the championship. The lineup will face the challenge short three pivotal pieces. Beside Herrera, the Alicante side is missing central defender Kecojevic, a key element in Siviero’s containment plan, and midfield stalwart Maxi Ribero who has anchored the engine room since the winter market brought him in.
The positive result against Mar Menor in San Javier has left Intercity determined not to give up on direct promotion just yet. With only six days remaining in the regular season, every match has become a referendum on the team’s season-long ambitions. The clash with La Nucía keeps both clubs locked in a fierce contest where neither side shows signs of backing down or easing their grip on the fight for leadership.
Intercity’s latest fixture notes the club’s scenarios as they plan for the road ahead. The upcoming match with La Nucía has become a focal point of the campaign, presenting a test of team depth and tactical adaptability. The management will be watching closely as the season enters its final stretch, aware that a strong finish could secure a promotion pathway that has been the dream since the league’s reshuffling last summer.
Intercity secured a recent acquisition, Alzira, who faced relegation from the playoff race during a poor second leg in the league. The Valencian club is looking to re-establish itself on the stage where it earned promotion to the Second RFEF the previous year. With Roan and Germán sidelined by physical issues, the coaching staff in Valencia are bringing in players like Sergio Bono and Chema Moreno for a renewal ahead of a morning rendezvous. Alzira aims to demonstrate their quality as visitors and snap a troubling winless run that has stretched to several consecutive matches.
Manu Herrera’s unfortunate absence at goal—he had not missed a single league minute this season—will push coach Gustavo Siviero to give a debut to the 20-year-old Dutch goalkeeper Dani Atanes. Siviero has not shown concern about the Dutchman’s relative inexperience; he remains confident and emphasizes the importance of relying on the collective strength of the squad. The Argentine coach has shown patience and a clear plan, trusting in the group’s resilience as the season closes in on its final chapters.
Intercity’s current lineup features Dani Atanes, José Manuel, Husic, Álvaro Pérez, Leo Ferroni, Miguel Marí, Josiel Núñez, Villacañas, Benja, Cristian Herrera and Pol Roigé, a roster built to compete at a high level as the club pursues its objectives in a demanding phase of the campaign. The team’s balance, depth in attack, and defensive organization will be tested as they navigate the remaining fixtures, always with an eye on maintaining momentum and seizing the opportunities that come with every game day. The coaching staff is tasked with shaping a coherent plan that can adapt to varying opponents while preserving the core strengths that have defined this season’s approach.
