Their penultimate match ended in a home draw against Girona (1-1), followed by another draw away at Sevilla (2-2). This team has had a home advantage, accruing 19 points at their stadium, with 17 goals scored and 25 conceded, compared to 12 points away, where they netted 15 goals and conceded 26.

The side, managed by Borja Jiménez, generally operates in a 4-4-2 tactical formation, focusing on controlled transitions, mainly through the central corridor. Dani Raba and Munir El Haddadi are vital in unbalancing opposing defences. When attacking, the team often exploits the right flank, leveraging the depth offered by defender Julian Chicco. Unfortunately, the home manager will be without Javi Hernández, who is suspended, as well as Enric Franquesa and Borna Barišić due to injury issues.
