The team typically plays with a 4-2-3-1 formation, focusing on short and quick passes while also utilising long balls to reach key forwards: Jonathan Dubasin, Juan Otero, and Víctor Campuzano, who collectively contribute to over 70% of the team’s goals. Midfielder Jesús Bernal has been sidelined with an injury since the start of the year, further affecting the squad.

After 10 wins, 10 draws, and 11 losses, the visiting side currently sits in 17th place with 37 points. In their previous match, they achieved a victory against Málaga (2‑0) but lost their prior away match against Burgos (1‑0).

In 31 matches this season, they have conceded the first goal on 15 occasions and have managed to respond in only 1 instance.
Albacete has maintained a relative distance from the relegation zone, managing to stay out of the lower part of the Adelante League table thanks to a vital win at home recently, defeating their opponent 2-0 with goals from Jon Morcillo and Christian Kofane. The team’s preferred formation is 4-4-2, focusing on speed to exploit gaps in the opposing defence. Agus Medina plays a crucial role in facilitating the flow of the match through precise passes, particularly down the left flank to create scoring opportunities. Upfront, Jon Morcillo and Alberto Quiles exhibit a strong tactical synergy, constantly seeking space and finishing accurately, keeping the team a constant threat in attack. The absence of Christian Kofane and midfielder Antonio Pacheco due to suspension will be confirmed as significant losses for the upcoming match.
