This game is likely to be decided in the closing stages, as Celta Fortuna have scored 35% of their total goals in the 76-90 minute period, while Castellón have conceded 30% of their total goals in the same period. These two sets of numbers point in the same direction: the final minutes will be open and end-to-end, and the home side should get chances to counter-attack against a tiring defense. Celta Fortuna's recent form supports this view, having opened the season with a 4-2 win over FC Andorra in La Liga 2 on 24 Aug, and even though they drew 0-0 away at Cádiz in La Liga 2 on 15 Aug, they remain unbeaten in 2 consecutive matches. Castellón, meanwhile, have kept 2 clean sheets in a row (0-0 vs Sabadell and 1-0 at Real Sociedad II), but their solid defense may face a stern test late on, as the home side are likely to push forward. The expected picture is that Celta Fortuna will have slightly less possession but will score from counter-attacks in the 76-90 minute period, which is when Castellón are most vulnerable.
