Overview
- Córdoba confirmed Zidane underwent minimally invasive surgery for a disc issue and is expected to return in roughly three months.
- Kevin Medina sustained a fractured radial head during Sunday’s training session and will be sidelined for several weeks.
- After 18 matches Córdoba sits 12th on 23 points, four off the provisional play‑off cut and only three above the relegation threshold.
- The six‑game winless stretch features severe attacking inefficiency with 96 shots, 28 on target and just five goals, including a current scoring drought for leading scorer Fuentes in this span.
- Defensive signs improved with back‑to‑back clean sheets as Eibar failed to register a single shot on target in the 0‑0 draw, though home attendance fell to a season low of 12,913 against a campaign average of 16,220.
