This encounter, scheduled for half past five in the afternoon, is vital for the Granada side's hopes of securing a spot in the Copa del Rey. Although both teams have already achieved their main season objectives, they still have pending goals in the remaining two matchdays.
Sima Granada, led by coach Nano Calvache, enters this game following a defeat against Malacitano Futsal, where they failed to maintain an early lead. However, Jumilla's draw allows them to hold onto fifth place, which grants access to the cup competition, despite facing the top two teams in their upcoming fixtures.
Meanwhile, Oleoinnova Mengíbar FS has shown exceptional performance, accumulating 79 out of a possible 84 points. The Jaén-based team has been crowned league champions and will directly advance to the second phase of the promotion playoffs to Segunda División. Their current focus is on continuing to add points to improve their victory coefficient, which is crucial for future draws.
“"We have a very complicated schedule, but we want to keep fighting for the dream of being in the Copa del Rey. Against Mengíbar, we will play without pressure, and hopefully, we can offer a high-quality performance to our fans."
