The team from Tenerife, leading their group by nine points over the 'celeste' reserve team, has the chance to mathematically secure their promotion to the silver category of Spanish football. To achieve this, they need a win at El Toralín and for Celta Fortuna to drop points in their visit to Pontevedra.
Despite significant absences due to suspension, including David Rodríguez, Aitor Sanz, and Fran Sabina, as well as the known unavailability of Alassan, Marc Mateu, Javi Pérez, and Nacho Gil, the team faces this challenge against an opponent that has proven to be one of the strongest in the second half of the Primera Federación season.
“"We are a team that wins matches, but lately, it's been difficult, both because of opposing teams and ourselves, because we are doing things that three months ago were unthinkable."
The technical director has emphasized the need for the team to act cohesively and overcome recent errors, attributing part of the difficulty to the pressure of closing out the season. He noted that promotion is still perceived as distant and urged players to focus on their own performance to prevent Ponferradina from imposing their style of play.
The opponent, known for their solidity and effectiveness, has been a challenge for CD Tenerife in recent weeks. Despite the importance of the match, the team has maintained calm in training, seeking to correct deficiencies that have appeared in games.
