The white-and-green squad, which has secured four consecutive victories, faces a considerable challenge. Despite recent good results, the team has struggled to keep clean sheets, conceding goals in three of their last four matches.
Castellón, with 64 goals scored, ranks as the third-highest scoring team in the Liga Hypermotion. Their attractive playing style and diversified attackers, including players like Álex Calatrava (13 goals) and Ousmane Camara (11 goals), pose a constant threat to any defense.
“"Guarantees of victory, especially away from home, must involve minimizing the damage conceded at the goal."
Defensive difficulties have been a consistent issue for Córdoba CF throughout the season, having conceded 55 goals to date. This figure is considerably high for a team with aspirations in the upper echelons of the league, surpassed only by two teams in relegation spots and Almería, whose offensive prowess compensates for their defensive fragility.
For coach Iván Ania, the key to achieving a positive result in Castalia lies in the team's solidity and compactness, particularly in the performance of the defensive line. The defense, featuring players such as Albarrán, Álex Martín, Rubén Alves, and Vilarrasa, will need to deliver their best to contain the powerful opposing attack and aim for all three points.
