Team News: Castellón
There’s just the lone fitness concern for the Castellón gaffer Johan Plat to be concerned with due to a largely intact set of players. Kenneth Mamah (Adductor injury) is out of contention.

Our feeling is that UD Almería may find it difficult to score against this Castellón side who we reckon will end up scoring and possibly keep a clean sheet as well.
We therefore fancy a 1-0 advantage for Castellón at the end of the 90 minutes.
Hoping for a good game.
