Atlético Madrileño's route to promotion to Segunda División | OneFootball

Atlético Madrileño heads into the final two matchdays of the Primera Federación two points behind the leader, with the dream of promotion still very much alive. Supporters of the reserve side, managed by Fernando Torres, are doing all sorts of calculations in the hope of seeing Madrileño back in professional football. Atlético Madrileño reaches the last two matchdays with 64 points, in third place, after beating Sabadell, who are second with 65 points. And this Saturday they face Eldense, the leaders with 66 points. What is clear in Madrileño’s calculations is that they still cannot secure promotion on this penultimate matchday.

Atlético Madrileño’s promotion scenarios

For Atlético Madrileño to win promotion and be crowned champions of Group II in the Primera Federación, they must win both of their matches, against Eldense and Algeciras. Even then, it is still not entirely in their hands to claim that long-awaited reward. With six points still to play for, Fernando Torres’s side does not depend on itself, but if they want to go up, they will have to take all six points to have a chance.

Everything starts with beating Eldense at the Nuevo Pepico Amat, while keeping a close eye on Sabadell – Antequera, which kicks off at the same time. If they beat the current leaders and Sabadell drop points in their league match, Atlético Madrileño could go into the final matchday as outright leaders.

The equation is clear: if Atlético Madrileño want to keep dreaming of promotion, they must win both of their matches. From there, they must wait to see what happens on this penultimate matchday or, failing that, on the final one. On the last matchday, the Colchonero side will host Algeciras in Alcalá. Meanwhile, Eldense will visit Real Murcia and Sabadell will travel to Tarazona. Both teams could be fighting to avoid relegation, depending on this Saturday’s results.
