Castellón are still unbeaten and have conceded just twice: prediction for Leganés vs. Castellón
The matchday-seven La Liga 2 clash between Leganés and Castellón will take place on September 28 at the Municipal de Butarque. The hosts sit eighth with 11 points, while the visitors lead the table with 16 points after six rounds.
Leganés: perfect home record, but the league leaders are next
Leganés have made a steady start to the season, recording three wins, two draws and one defeat. In the previous round, Rubén Albés’ side were involved in a high-scoring contest against Granada and secured a 3-2 victory.
The Madrid club have been particularly strong at home, winning both of their matches on their own turf. However, the level of opposition is about to rise significantly: the visitors are unbeaten and boast one of the best defenses in the division.
Castellón: five wins in six rounds and just two goals conceded
Castellón, under Pablo Hernández, have made an almost perfect start. After six matches, the team have five wins and one draw, with a goal difference of 12:2.
In the previous round, the league leaders thrashed Tenerife 5-0, underlining the excellent form of their attack. Their away record is just as impressive — three wins from three matches — so the trip to Butarque is unlikely to prompt them to abandon their usual attacking approach.
Match facts and head-to-head record
- Castellón have won five of their six matches this season and remain unbeaten.
- The visitors have conceded just two goals and scored 12.
- Castellón have won three of their last four head-to-head meetings, with one draw.
The leaders can prove their class once again: prediction for Leganés vs. Castellón
Leganés’ home record deserves attention, but Castellón’s current form looks far more convincing. The visitors are solid at the back, clinical when their chances come and have already won three times on the road.
Moreover, the recent head-to-head record favors the league leaders. Leganés are capable of causing problems and could well find the net, but over the course of the match, Castellón hold the edge in terms of consistency.
