Atleti B Aiming to Strengthen Playoff Position
Atlético de Madrid B travels to Yecla with the firm intention of consolidating their place in the promotion playoff spots for the Second Division. Fernando Torres’s team arrives at matchday 28 of the Primera RFEF with a very positive run of results, looking to extend their unbeaten streak to four games.
After important home wins against Villarreal B and Real Murcia, and a valuable away draw in Antequera, the Colchoneros’ subsidiary currently occupies fifth place with 40 points.
In their last match, Atleti B demonstrated their offensive power by defeating Real Murcia 2-1, with a standout performance from Adrián Niño, who scored a brace.
Now, the challenge is to overcome Yeclano Deportivo, a team that occupies thirteenth position with 32 points and that, despite their situation in the table, demands the utmost respect after putting the leader Ibiza in trouble in their own stadium.
The first leg match between both teams ended in a goalless draw in Majadahonda. Yeclano has several players with a nose for goal, including Teddy, a former Rojiblanco who knows the club’s philosophy well. Another youth player, Álex Masogo, is also part of the Murcian squad.
The match presents a key opportunity for Atleti B to demonstrate their ambition and keep the dream of promotion alive. With the unconditional support of the fans, the team will seek to add three vital points on their way to the Second Division.
