C.D. Leganés visit Real Valladolid this Wednesday (19:00) at the Estadio José Zorrilla, in a match corresponding to the third round of LALIGA EA SPORTS. The Pepineros will be looking to continue their good start to the league season against an opponent looking for their second win at home.
First midweek fixture of the season for Leganés, who are looking to continue their good start to the season after returning to the Primera División four years later. The Blue and Whites put in a great performance in their opening game in Pamplona, opening with a 1-1 draw, while they took all three points in their first game at Butarque last Sunday against Las Palmas (2-1).
Lega now face their second trip of the season against Real Valladolid, who were the other team to win direct promotion last season. The coach, Borja Jiménez, will be able to count on his entire squad, including the latest signings, Munir and Porozo, who were already in the squad against the Yellows and could get their first minutes.
Real Valladolid go for their second home win of the season
For their part, Real Valladolid go into the game aiming for their second home win of the season. The blanquivioletas returned to LALIGA EA SPORTS with their first three points at home against another newly promoted side, R.C.D. Espanyol (1-0) and, after failing to win at the Santiago Bernabéu against Real Madrid (3-0), they face another game at Zorrilla looking to add to their tally.
Puccini coach Paulo Pezzolano could have striker Juanmi Latasa, one of this summer's signings, who has not yet been able to make his debut as he has not been registered, for the first time. Other new faces who could be on the pitch are the Estonian goalkeeper Hein, the Swiss centre-back Cömert or the midfielder Mario Martín. Half a thousand supporters will be at Zorrilla to cheer on Lega.
The match will be refereed by the Andalusian referee, Mr. Alejandro Quintero González.
