This Sunday the other derby is played, that of modest football in Barcelona. An exciting UE Sant Andreu – CE Europe match corresponding to matchday 20 of the Second Federation Group 3 will be played at the Narcís Sala Municipal stadium.

In this match, CE Europa arrives as the leader and UE Sant Andreu in fifth position, but separated by only four points of difference. Both teams are protagonists today in La Vanguardia's Readers' Photos.

The two teams were promoted last season from the Third Federation. Europa as champion of the category and Sant Andreu after competing in the playoffs. To do this, they had to eliminate Peralada CF, San Cristobal CP and, finally, the legendary UD Salamanca in the Helmántico in a double match.

Two recently promoted teams where a priori the most important thing was to consolidate the category. Day after day they are earning the admiration and respect of their rivals.

In this group we can find Hércules CF, a team that had historically played in the First Division, as well as the new Club Lleida Esportiu (former Unió Esportiva Lleida), also Badalona Futur CF, Terrassa FC and the branches Valencia Mestalla and RCD Espanyol B.

As you can see, it will be a very hot derby, not only because of the rivalry on the pitch but also in the stands. With 10 days left before the game, all 6,500 seats were sold out.

A gala Narcis Sala awaits this derby and both fans. In the North background, as always, there will be the UE Sant Andreu cheering stand, Desperdicis, and in the South Goal, Eskapulats, cheering on Europa.
