After passing around Alicante and Elche, turn off at junction 745 [TORREVIEJA (norte)] and at the roundabout, take the first exit to join the CV-940 towards San Miguel de Salinas. Follow the road for about 6 kilometres, passing under the motorway, to the next roundabout. Take the third exit to join the CV-945 towards Los Montesinos. After about 1.5 kilometres, at the roundabout on the outskirts of the town, take the third exit and follow the road through the urbanisation to the football ground.

OUR OPPONENTS

There has been a football club representing the town of Los Montesinos since 1973. The current club was founded in 2007 as the fourth incarnation of Club Deportivo Montesinos.

The club spent the first ten season in the bottom tier of the FFCV regional football pyramid, the Segunda Regional, until they won promotion at the end of the 2016-2017 season as champions of Group 16, winning 17 of their 22 games. Two seasons in the Primera Regional followed, a fifth position finish followed by relegation back to the Segunda Regional after finishing second from bottom of Group 8.

The 2019-2020 season was cut short by the COVID-19 pandemic but finished with CD Montesinos topping Group 14 based on a federation co-efficiency rating which ranked them as clear winners with 22 wins from 24 games and the club enjoyed an immediate return to the Primera Regional.

The FFCV restructuring of regional football in the Comunidad Valenciana in 2023 saw CD Montesinos drop to tier 3 Segona FFCV for the 2023-24 season and they enjoyed another championship campaign, topping Group 8 with 19 wins from 30 games and winning promotion back to tier 2, the Primera FFCV.

This season, after four games, CD Montesinos tops the table with three wins and a draw and is the only club to remain unbeaten. Last weekend, it won an early top of the table clash with Catral-Castrum CF to leapfrog their opponents into top spot.
