In the penultimate match, they tied in an away match against Osasuna, by (1‑1).

In 15 matches for the competition, they have never been able to turn the score around in the 7 matches in which they conceded the first goal.
Elche comes motivated for this match after an away triumph, by 0-2, against Leioa, counting for the Copa del Rey: Carrillo shone in the game, allowing his team to win the victory. The home club has a habit of playing in a tactical system in 4-4-2, and the two players whose main mission will be to “shake up” the opponent’s defense are Lucas Boyé and Lucas Pérez. Spaniard Omar Mascarell is the player responsible for leading and defining his team’s attacking moments. Coach Francisco Rodríguez must be delighted to have all the players at his disposal for this round.
The away team is currently in the 18th place, with 12 points won, after 2 wins, 6 draws and 7 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Getafe, by (4‑0).

In the last 7 away league matches Cádiz has a record of 2 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses, having won 8 points out of 21 possible. The team has conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition, so they haven’t been very strong defensively.

In the last 11 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 5 of their 14 goals between minutes (76’‑90′).
Cádiz comes motivated for this match after an away victory, by 0-7, against Villa de Fortuna, for the Copa del Rey: Álvaro Negredo, Álvaro Jiménez, López, Martín Calderón and Osmajic scored the “goals ” of the rout. The greatest quality of the visiting team resides in the ability it demonstrates to react to a disadvantaged situation. Cádiz has a habit of acting in a tactical system in 4-4-2, where the two most advanced men will be Rubén Sobrino and Anthony Lozano. The Spanish Álex Fernandes is the player responsible for defining and directing the offensive sector of his team. Coach Álvaro Cervera is likely to be without defensive midfielder Jon Ander Garrido as he is recovering from a knee injury.
