Leganes have been steadier than spectacular: three wins, two draws and a loss in the same spell. They needed a 3-2 scrap to see off Granada last time out, having also lost at home to Tenerife a fortnight before that.

Three of Castellón's five wins have come on the road, so playing away doesn't seem to bother them.

Comparative Team Statistics: Leganes vs Castellón

Recent head-to-head favours the visitors

Castellón have won three of the last four meetings between these sides, with the other finishing level. Leganes haven't beaten Castellón in any of the last four recorded games, a run stretching back to 2020.

That's history rather than current form, but it's a pattern Leganes will want to break.

Where they sit in the table

Castellón are top of Segunda División with 16 points from six games, and they've built that on the best defensive record between these two, conceding just twice all season. Leganes sit seventh with 11 points, already having shipped five goals.

It's early days, but the gap in goals conceded already stands out.

Players making the difference

Ousmane Camara has been the standout for Castellón, scoring four goals in six appearances and adding an assist too. Pablo Santiago has chipped in with two more, so the goals aren't just coming from one source.

For Leganes, Ismaël Gharbi and Naim García have two goals apiece so far. Marvel has already picked up three yellow cards in six games, and Raúl Fernández was sent off in just two appearances, so discipline is worth keeping an eye on.

Camara's scoring rate looks like the single biggest individual factor in this one.

How this one might play out

Castellón have built their position on defence as much as attack, shipping just two goals all season, while Leganes have already conceded five and needed a scrappy 3-2 win last time out. That contrast suggests Leganes could have to work hard for any chances they create.

Leganes do have home advantage and showed they can score three against Granada, so this isn't a one-way street. But Castellón's control of games, home or away, has been the story of their season so far.
