BarcelonaCE Europa and UE Sant Andreu will feature in a historic derby this Saturday at the RCDE Stadium. The century-old rivalry between two of the most representative clubs of popular football in Barcelona will leave the neighborhoods of Gràcia and Sant Andreu to move to the Espanyol stadium. The match, corresponding to the Primera Federación, has generated extraordinary anticipation and has already exceeded 15,000 tickets sold. In fact, the 'escapulat' club has expanded the capacity to 17,400 seats.

The setting and the turnout of the public will turn the derby into an exceptional day for Catalan football. Sant Andreu, for its part, has sold out the 3,274 tickets it had available. The RCDE Stadium, usually the stage for First Division matches, will host this clash between Europa and Sant Andreu for the first time, as they face an appointment that goes beyond the standings.

The 'escapulats' are sixteenth with 10 points and are coming off the back of ending a streak of three consecutive defeats in the League thanks to a 3-2 victory against the Atlético de Madrid reserve team. Sant Andreu, for its part, parted ways with Natxo González on October 28th and Javi Rey took over the role.
