Castellón B will face Valencia Mestalla this Saturday in a crucial match for permanence in Segunda RFEF, with only nine points remaining in play for salvation.

The reserve team of CD Castellón will host one of its direct rivals in the fight to maintain their category in Segunda RFEF. The match, which will kick off at 4:00 PM at the Gaetà Huguet facilities, is considered a true final for survival.
Fans attending the stadium will need to cheer loudly, as Óscar López's players will give their all on the field. With only nine points left to play for, the 'albinegros' need to secure between four and five points to avoid reaching the last matchday under immense pressure. Referee Xaver Alins Rodríguez, from the Terrassa delegation, will officiate the encounter.
Valencia Mestalla is in a similar situation and needs to win at least one match to avoid depending on the results of teams like Ibiza IP and Barbastro, who are currently lower in the standings. While the Valencian team recently secured a good win against Sant Andreu, Castellón B only managed a 1-1 draw at home against Olot.
For this important clash, which has not been repeated since the 2020/21 season in Tercera División, CD Castellón B will be without Zom a Zom and José Nadal due to suspension. Additionally, Marcos Montero is out with an injury, and David Sellés is doubtful due to discomfort. Meanwhile, Valencia Mestalla will arrive with its full squad, as their first team is not playing, and will only miss midfielder Lucas Núñez due to suspension.
