Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Castellon and Fuenlabrada go head to head at Estadio Municipal de Castalia on Monday evening. Castellon aim to make amends for back-to-back defeats to Almeria and Mirandes, with the team eyeing their sixth home win of the season. Juan Carlos Garrido’s troops are desperate to escape the relegation zone, and we predict that they will fight tooth and nail against Fuenlabrada. Bodiger is pushing for a start, with Molina likely to drop to the bench.
Fuenla, on the other hand, are stuck in the middle of the table, with the team failing to win the last five league matches in Segunda Division. Considering that Castellon want this win more than Fuenlabrada, we predict that the relegation strugglers are going to pick up all three points from the match. In the first half of the season the two sides played out a 1-1 draw.
