The loss of Aguero Aznar impacts attack options, and Ojeda is expected back in early June, possibly aiding midfield unity. Sielva won’t return until August, a significant blow to their offense.

Injuries and suspensions add to their difficulties, requiring better team strategy and integration.

SD Huesca is set to use a 4-4-1-1 formation, placing Enrich alone up front with Portillo handling playmaking ahead of midfield. Full-backs Carrillo and Fernández provide width. A midfield resembling either a diamond shape or flat four supports their defense. In tough situations, coach Oltra may switch to a 5-3-2. Their strategy focuses on counter-attacks, utilizing quick breaks given their limited possession.
