In another rather inconsistent campaign, the Canary Islands club can only celebrate the fact that they have sealed their 12th consecutive season in the second tier of Spanish football, having accumulated a solid 53 points from 41 rounds, which is enough to take the 12th spot.

To defend their current position, Tete must figure out how to prevail against none other than the league leaders, but their recent showings doesn't inspire much confidence, having gone winless in three straight league fixtures, suffering back-to-back losses to Cartagena and Amorebieta before playing out a 1-1 draw against Burgos CF last time out.

Despite facing several difficulties in recent weeks, returning to the Heliodoro base brings a sense of optimism for Tenerife, as their home ground and the support of beloved fans have been their greatest assets throughout the season, where they have claimed ten out of their total 14 wins this term while conceding a league-low 10 and keeping 11 clean sheets to date.

However, it's hard to imagine Asier Garitano's men keeping their Sunday rivals at bay, especially considering they've been suffered heavy blows in their last two head-to-head encounters with Real Valladolid, shipping a whopping six goals in the process, including a two-goal unanswered loss in the November reverse fixture at Jose Zorrilla.

Just 12 months after their relegation from Spania's LaLiga, resilient Real Valladolid swiftly reclaimed their elite-tier status, and the official confirmation came last week in front of their home fans in a highly dramatic fashion, where they staged a stunning comeback by netting two goals in stoppage time to edge out doomed Villarreal B 3-2.

The unforgettable comeback last week not only earned them a place among Spain's strongest sides but also launched them to the summit of the table with a narrow one-point cushion over Leganes in second. With the main goal achieved, Pucelle's sole remaining mission is to clinch the Segunda Division title, drawing inspiration from their recent sparkling form, as they remain unbeaten in 10 straight matches (W7 D3).

Even though both teams can boast being among the most reliable second-tier sides at the opposite end of the field this term, we doubt they'll prioritize defense in the final matchday, especially considering they enter the game completely relieved and with little to fight for. With no need to adopt a defensive stance, coupled with the desire to finish the season on a high note, we sincerely hope that Tete and Pucelle will treat the spectators at Heliodoro to an exhilarating display of football, where both nets should ripple at least once.
