Castellon
- Castellon are sixth in LaLiga 2 with 69 points from 41 games, two points clear of 8th-placed Eibar on 67.
- Castellon have won two, drawn two and lost one of their last five matches, drawing 1-1 twice and then beating SD Huesca 1-0 away from home last time out.
- Pablo Hernandez has installed a high-tempo, attacking style on Castellon since taking charge in September 2025 in which two wide players create continuous wing overloads and the front four work hard to win the ball back quickly.
Eibar
- Eibar have won three of their last five, including a 2-0 victory at home to Cordoba last weekend.
- Eibar’s 4-2-3-1 system, introduced by Beñat San José upon his appointment as coach in February 2025, is just as proactive with the team pressing high to win the ball in advanced positions and looking to release the two number 10s and wide players down the middle.
Key Players
- Alex Calatrava has been Hernandez’s most reliable goal threat this term, netting 13 times in 40 LaLiga 2 games and scoring three of Castellon’s last seven goals.
- San José’s style has brought the best out of Jon Bautista, who has scored three of the club’s last nine.
