This Saturday marks the beginning of the end of a final with the promise of a return to the First Women's Division. Villarreal CF and Valencia Féminas CF, two teams sharing the same goal and a recent wound, will face each other in the first leg of the promotion playoff. The Mini Estadi will be the venue where the Villarreal team, which lost promotion two years ago, and the Valencia team, which was relegated last season, seek to complete their journey back. The match will kick off at 6:00 PM.

Only one of the two teams will be able to celebrate promotion, as only one spot remains to move up to the First Division. After Deportivo Alavés has already secured promotion as champions, Villarreal CF and Valencia Féminas CF will play for everything in 180 minutes. The second leg will take place on Saturday, the 20th, also at 6:00 PM, at the Antonio Puchades stadium.

The Villarreal players arrive at this final after convincingly defeating Osasuna in the semifinals, winning both matches. For their part, the Valencia team secured victory against CD Alba FF in an exciting second-leg match that ended 4-3, overturning the 0-0 draw from the first leg.

In the regular season this year, the previous encounters between the two teams were close. At the Antonio Puchades, Valencia Féminas won 1-0 with a goal from Danielle Marcano in the 94th minute. At the Mini Estadi, the match ended in a 2-2 draw, after María Macías put the home team ahead, Claudia Ferrato and Montse Quesada (own goal) turned the score around, and Irene Miguélez equalized.

Now, with these recent results, Villarreal CF and Valencia Féminas face each other at the most crucial moment of the season. With no room for error, a place in the First Division is at stake in two matches that promise excitement and intensity until the final minute.
