They have scored at least two goals in six games during that period and will look to build on that form. They have an impressive home record in this fixture, suffering just one loss in 21 games, and are strong favorites.
Daley Sinkgraven, Álex Muñoz, Benito Ramírez, Adnan Januzaj, and Dário Essugo are sidelined with injuries. Pejiño is expected to miss this match due to personal reasons.
Pucelanos have failed to score in three of their last four league games. Interestingly, they have won three of their last five away games in all competitions, scoring 11 goals, and will look to build on that form. They are winless in away games in this fixture since 1981.
