San Sebastián de los Reyes (Sanse) arrives at its home in Zubieta with the urgency of reversing a streak of six consecutive defeats that places it in the relegation zone of the Second Division. The season has been an oversight for the Colts, who have not managed to win on their own ground and are two points away from the safety zone, marked by Cádiz. The last victory of the local team was on September 12 against Andorra, and since then the squad has not shown the necessary strength to compete in its stadium.
Girona, for its part, arrives with positive momentum after beating Cuarte in the Copa del Rey and Celta Fortuna on the last day of the competition. The Catalans occupy fourth position in the table and have gone seven games without losing, with seven of twelve points obtained away from home. Their squad has players with experience in the Primera and the Champions League, such as former Realista Portu, who will return to Zubieta after leaving the club. This combination of quality and recent form makes Girona the main challenge for Sanse as they attempt to avoid relegation.
Sanse coach Matarazzo has tried to restructure the team, especially in goal, where he has opted for Olasagasti after the departure of the previous option. In attack, the only player who has shown consistency is Dani Díaz, while the defense will have to decide whether to keep Calderón and Kita after a game marked by errors. Available players include Beitia and Orobengoa, who are injured, and Marchal, Carrera and Lebarbier, who could join the starting lineup. The coach's strategy will be crucial to achieve the necessary victory at home.
The game promises to be an important challenge for the colts, who must overcome Girona's superiority both in quality and recent form. If they manage to beat the Catalans, Sanse would not only regain lost confidence, but would also approach the safety zone and avoid the relegation zone. The result of this match will be decisive for the team's immediate future in the Second Division.
