Lanzarote are in fourth spot though level on points with third placed side UD Las Palmas B who both trail league leaders CD Tenerife B by seven points. Our opponents from Fuerteventura have had a difficult season and are second from bottom and are desperate to get something from the match as they are five points from safety.
Defender Alex Cruz is out after suffering a bad looking injury in last week’s match when he was carried off in only the 2nd minute. His results from the MRI have shown that he has a damaged cartilage and will need a minor operation. It was feared that he had ligament damage but the good news is that this is not the case. He could be back in 5-7 weeks. Needless to say that I am sure we all wish Alex a speedy recovery. He has been outstanding this season.
Alex Cruz out injured but not as serious as originally feared.
Centre back Raúl and midfielder Dani González return after being out with flu and playmaker León Gómez is available after a one match suspension. New striker Jorge Canillas remains a doubt as he has a neck injury.
