In their previous game, the manager Diego Merino led his Mérida AD to a defeat in the Segunda B - Group 4 match away at Talavera CF. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Romano Jose Fouto. In the match before that, Mérida AD hosted San Fernando CD and drew the game 1-1.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Mérida AD as they have a new game in only four days, a Copa Del Rey match thankfully also at home. La Nucia are visiting.
