Rayo Majadahonda is preparing for a crucial weekend in Alicante, where they will fight for direct promotion on matchday 32, hoping for a slip-up from the current leader to seize the top position.

The battle for direct promotion in the league reaches its peak with only three matchdays remaining. Rayo Majadahonda, coming off two consecutive victories, will face Elche Ilicitano this Sunday 19 at 12:00. This match will be influenced by the result of San Sebastián de los Reyes, the current leader, who plays on Saturday at 18:30 against Orihuela CF.
A potential setback for the leading team would open the door for the Majadahonda squad to claim the first position. Rayo Majadahonda has regained positive momentum after overcoming a slump that caused them to lose the lead they held for 17 matchdays, and now approaches this trip with the ambition of controlling their own destiny.

A stumble by the 'sanseros' would open the door for Rayo Majadahonda to assault the leadership in this final stretch.

Elche Ilicitano, for its part, arrives in excellent form, with three consecutive victories, despite having virtually secured permanence. The Elche reserve team has established itself as one of the most attractive teams in the category, standing out for its scoring ability and offensive playing style. The first-round precedent, with a 4-2 victory for Rayo Majadahonda, promises a high-scoring match.
The Majadahonda team will have the support of its fans, as the board has organized a trip with two buses, tickets, and a 'snack' for a symbolic price. Nearly a hundred supporters will accompany the team in Alicante, aware of the importance of this weekend for their promotion aspirations.
