- Competition: Segunda Division
- Date: 23rd March 2024
- Kickoff: 17:30 UTC / 18:30 CET
- Venue: El Madrigal
This weekend, Leganes will continue their quest to return to Spain’s top flight for the first time in five years as the season concludes, with their journey taking them to Villareal B.
In 2024, the hosts have provided their fans with minimal reasons to celebrate. The youthful yellow submarines have only recorded two victories in their eleven matches this year and are heading into this weekend’s game on a five-match losing streak.
At present, Leganes is one of the top-performing teams in the Segunda División. Borja Jiménez’s team has managed to secure victories in their last two matches, thereby retaining their leading position in the league standings. Although they will aim for another win in their upcoming match, it is not anticipated to be a straightforward game for the visitors.
Villareal B vs Leganes Betting Tips: Under 2.5 goals
Despite not being in peak form, the hosts don’t let in many goals. In their last seven games, Villareal B has only allowed more than one goal twice, and they also don’t score many themselves. Miguel Ãlvarez’s team has gone four games without scoring any goal, a streak I believe will persist this weekend.
In their most recent match, Leganes triumphed over Mirandes with a 4-0 score, marking only the second instance in their past eight games where Borja Jiménez’s team netted more than a single goal. Their recent away games have predominantly been tight contests, with merely two of the last ten matches yielding more than two goals.

Leganes team news
Leganes have no injuries to report, but a warning for either Allan Nyom, Enric Franquesa, Aritz Arambarri or Seydouba Cissé this weekend could lead to a one-match ban.
Following his brace in the last match, Diego García has now tallied eleven goals this season and is expected to spearhead the team this weekend. Meanwhile, Francisco Portillo, with his six assists, is predicted to be the player to pay attention to in midfield.
