Orihuela form and stats

Disaster struck Orihuela last season as they could not defend their status as a Segunda B - Group 3 team. With 13 defeats from 28 games, and only 4 wins, relegation could not be avoided. Orihuela are hopeful of bouncing straight back up, but need to improve upon their home record from last season of W2 D8 L4.

The manager Sánchez Fuentes will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Castellon II in only three days.
