To win at the Carlos Marchena, Xerez CD will have to stay focused for 90 minutes and not make any mistakes. This is how the azulino coach, Emilio Fajardo, sees it, who points out that the experience of the game in Lebrija seven days ago, where the xerecistas had a terrible time in the final minutes for not closing the game, should serve as learning.

The Azulino coach assures that his team has the incentive "to try to get the second consecutive victory" away from home while Cabecense debuts as a coach in the figure of Juan Carlos Menudo, substitute for Rogelio Sánchez in the ranks of the bottom team. Fajardo points out that "we know how to play in this type of fields like Las Cabezas or Lebrija and it doesn't matter how each one is in the table, these matches are very even in every way, you can't lose a second of concentration and any failure makes the rival get into the game or get ahead. We have to learn from the last minutes of Lebrija, it was a game that the team deserved to reach the last minutes more loosely and nevertheless we arrived (tight) because these "Things happen on these pitches. We have to enter like we did in Lebrija, which is the most positive of all, after 30 seconds we were planted in front of the goalkeeper and then in the second half we started the same way. That Xerez is the one we have to see in Las Heads," he says.

The coach expects a match with similar characteristics to the one played in Lebrija: "Absolutely. In Las Cabezas nobody has come and scored. We recently saw Lucena there and they had a very bad time, bottled up in the last ten as happened to us in Lebrija and in the end it's because you don't close the match. We have to be very aware that you can't fail because any mistake is paid for and suffered".

 Fajardo:

After resting last day, the new coaching staff has had time to implement new ideas in the Sevillian squad and there are no references to how Cabecense can play against XCD: "With Rogelio, they started with 4-1-4-1 and then changed 3-5-2. Now they will have another idea, we all know Menudo, we try to remember how his last teams played, but from then on they will want to show the new coach that they have a place".

Deportivo is sixth, one point behind Ciudad de Lucena and two behind Gerena, but it can also cut three points from Córdoba B, second with six more points and who rests this weekend: "Just as the teams have taken advantage of our break to adding three by three we now have to do the same".

Finally, the azulino coach does not believe that the classification has been broken from the top despite the fact that XCD has six points more than the seventh: "It is like the distance that Recre has right now. It is early to think that there are already two leagues "Because if you puncture in a field and those who are behind take advantage of it, they are already there. And the same as Recre, as a clicker, he knows that the rest of us are going to get closer. From December-January we will see if there is a step up , but there are still seven or eight days for that".
