The red-and-whiteswant to remain at the top of the table by winning at a difficult venue against an opponent who go into the seventh matchday with 4 points. If Toni Malla’s side win this match, they will enter their particular break with first place secured until their return on 20 November.

The red-and-white coach, Toni Malla, explains how they have spent the week following the important victory against Trops Málaga that: ‘We are very happy after the victory, because of the atmosphere and the team. This week we have a difficult match because, however far behind they may be in the table, they suffered a heavy home defeat in Málaga, but they are strong at home with young players, and ultimately their aim is to improve day by day. So it will be a difficult match. Whenever we have gone to Ciudad Real, it has been difficult’.

Regarding the opponent they face, Malla states: ‘We have to be very careful because they are a dangerous team, especially in defensive situations. We also have to be very good defensively if we want to take the two points. They will make things very difficult for us; in pre-season we were unable to win until the final minutes ’.

‘The victory is very important because these are the points that sooner or later will help us achieve our objective, which is to reach the promotion phase. We are going with maximum concentration and with the awareness that it will be very difficult to get points. I think it will be an evenly matched game throughout; if we take the lead, it will be by a small margin, and we have to play intelligently. The team is in good shape and form, and we approach the match with intensity and enthusiasm’, Malla concludes regarding the red-and-white team.
