Both teams are enjoying a good season so far and games like this could be decisive. Here's the preview for Córdoba - Marbella!

There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a Copa Del Rey match only four days ago. That game was an away game at SS Reyes, so at least Córdoba are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

Córdoba form and stats

Córdoba have been outstanding at home so far in the Segunda B - Group 4 with 6 wins, 2 draws and only 0 losses.

The fans are hoping that Córdoba will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-2 away loss in the Copa Del Rey game against SS Reyes. In the game before, an away victory in the Segunda B - Group 4 match versus Linense with a 1-0 scoreline.

This is expected to be a close game, with Córdoba perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Córdoba as a small favourite), we find six games. Córdoba has won 2 of these, drawn 2 and lost 2.

A decent goal production from Córdoba in their home games so far, with 12 goals from 8 league matches. As for guarding their own goal, Córdoba have only let in 4 goals at home.
