A draw after 90 minutes last time out for Lugo, who played 0-0 against Leganes. That match was also played at this venue (Estadio Anxo Carro).

Goalkeeper Whalley got the top rating on the team in that game; 7.81 out of ten. Whalley topped it up with a clean sheet.

A defeat was the result before that one, 1-3 away at Ponferradina.
