Remodelled Real Sociedad B test Tenerife’s old faces in Zubieta | OneFootball

A remodelled Real Sociedad B host Tenerife in Zubieta on matchday four of LaLiga Hypermotion, a reunion shaped by their late decided 2022 meeting.

According to AS, only José León and Enric Gallego remain from Tenerife’s 2022 visit to Anoeta. Back then Xabi Alonso’s Sanse featured Beñat Turrientes and Robert Navarro, while Jon Ansotegi now leads a group including Fraga and Dani Díaz.

That day Mario González struck early for the visitors. Robert Navarro levelled with nine minutes remaining, then Elady Zorrilla headed the winner in minute 86 to secure a vital fourth place at that time.

Sanse lost their opener to Castellón, then responded with a win and a draw. Tenerife began with two victories before a jolt against Sporting de Gijón.

The head to head in Sanse is tight, five Tenerife visits have brought two wins each and one draw, 1-1 in January 1987. Real B’s last home win in this fixture was in September 1983, 3-1. The match will be refereed by Abraham Domínguez Cervantes, with Alejandro Muñiz Ruiz on VAR.

Ansotegi is without Ekain Orobengoa, who has suffered a recurrence of his serious cruciate injury, and Oleaga, while Ayo and Calderón are being monitored. As usual with the ‘potrillos’, availability could hinge on what Pellegrino Matarazzo requires for Monday’s game against Elche.

Tenerife aim to move past the Sporting slip. Álvaro Cervera is unlikely to overhaul his side, keeper and back line set, the right wing still undecided after runs for Noel López, Chapela and Baba Diocou, while Gerard Valentín is not yet available.
