Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Following four consecutive defeats in Segunda Division, Tenerife will look to kickstart 2025 in style when they take on Castellon on Saturday evening. Los Insulares do not seem to be at their sharpest and, no doubt, manager Alvaro Cervera Diaz feels pressure ahead of the visit of Castellon. Cruz Luismi is banned for the match following his sending-off in a 3-0 loss to Levante, with fellow forward Alejandro Cantero likely to step up.
Dick Schreuder’s troops, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in back-to-back defeats to Deportivo La Coruna (1-5) and Elche (0-2). As both Castellon and Tenerife are desperate to return to winning ways in the Spanish second tier, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Both Willems and Lottin are pushing for recalls to the starting XI, speaking of the away team.
Highlighted Team (Tenerife):
Tenerife is a Spanish club based in the Canary Islands. Tenerife were founded on November 21, 1912, with the team playing home games at Heliodoro Rodriguez Lopez. The stadium was opened on July 25, 1925 and it can hold up to 22,824 spectators.
Los Insulares established them as the elite division club in the 1990s, but in 1999 the team suffer relegation to La Liga 2. Tenerife played in la liga two seasons more (2001/02, 2009/10), but they have been competing in lower leagues ever since. Los Insulares wear white and blue shirts when playing at home, whereas light green is the dominant colour of their away kit.
Tenerife participated in the UEFA Cup in the 1993/94 season, with the team eliminating the likes of Auxerre and Olympiakos before losing to Juventus in the last 16. Three years later the Spanish club did remarkably well to make it to the UEFA Cup semis. Las Palmas are considered Tenerife’s main rivals.
