The two sides have faced each other three times since 2017, twice in La Liga 2 and twice in the Primera División RFEF. Córdoba had the slight edge in the four encounters, registering two wins and one draw. The average number of goals per game was 3.
Cordoba team overview
Córdoba got off to a sluggish start in the 2025-26 Segunda División campaign, losing their first two games 5-2 on aggregate, and had to wait until matchday four for their first win.
Even after securing that much-needed victory against Castellón, Los Califas' troubles continued as they embarked on a three-match winless run. However, Iván Ania’s side ended this streak with a 1-0 victory over Real Zaragoza last weekend, and they will be confident of another win on Monday given their record against Cultural Leonesa.
The front three of Almeida, Fuentes and Medina, who have each scored one goal this season, are expected to reunite in the final third of the pitch, in what will largely be an unchanged side from the one that beat Real Zaragoza.

Cultural Leonesa team overview
Like their hosts, Cultural Leonesa struggled initially this season, failing to win any of their first four matches.
La Cultu secured their first victory of the campaign on Matchday 5, beating Racing 4-2, and have improved greatly since then.
They are preparing for Monday’s game on the back of a two-match unbeaten run, during which they have kept two clean sheets and registered one win.
Rafael Tresaco, Quique Fornos, Sergi Maestre and Eneko Satrustegui will miss the trip to Córdoba due to injury, but there are no suspensions.

Prediction
With just one defeat in their last five games and home advantage, not to mention a better record against Leonesa, it would be a surprise if the hosts don’t win. While I expect Los Califas to win, they are unlikely to do so without conceding, given that they have kept just one clean sheet in their last five matches. I am therefore predicting a 2-1 home win.
Three reasons we expect both teams to score in this game
- Both teams scored in four of the last five games of Cordoba.
- Leonesa have scored in four of their last five games across all competitions.
- Bets on btts – yes won in each of the last two La Liga 2 meetings between the two sides.
