Late Atienza strike keeps Leganes top after edging Eldense
Leganes moved to the summit of the Segunda División table with a narrow 1-0 win over Eldense at the Estadio Municipal de Butarque, a result that leaves Ruben Albes' side unbeaten on home soil this early in the campaign. The contest stayed goalless deep into the second half before a decisive intervention settled matters right at the death.
AI-assisted match report written from official match data.
With the scoreline blank for long spells, both sides traded chances without finding a breakthrough, Eldense's Claudio Barragan watching his team create eight corners to Leganes' none despite having less of the ball. It was Leganes who finally broke through in the 90th minute, Miguel Atienza converting after being set up by Sule to make it 1-0 and settle a tense, tightly contested match.
The victory arrived despite Eldense edging the shot count 16 to 11, though Leganes were sharper in front of goal with six shots on target to their opponents' four. Leganes' 52 per cent share of possession underlined a measured approach that was rewarded only in stoppage time, while a single yellow card for the hosts reflected a disciplined display overall.
Sule earned an assist and the match's top rating of 7.6, teeing up Atienza for the only goal of the game in the 90th minute.
Eldense's dominance in corners, winning eight to Leganes' none, hinted at sustained late pressure that ultimately went unrewarded.

Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Leganes 49%, the draw 28%, Eldense 23%. It finished Leganes 1–0 Eldense.
Leganes' rating edge, but the draw is in play — Leganes are a shade stronger on our strength rating, and that is most of Leganes' 49%. The draw at 28% is lifted by the early-season fade in home wins.
Why Leganes at 49%?
Leganes sit 76 points higher on our strength rating — 1530 to 1453. Sides with a 50–100-point rating edge at home won 50.6% of 10,384 such games.
Why only 49%?
Both sides are inside their first six league games — home wins land softer this early in the season, so this trims Leganes's column. Across 10,761 opening-stretch games since 2010, home sides won 42.8% where the rating map expected 44.9%, with draws up 2.0 — negative in every season since 2018.
Why is the draw second, ahead of the Eldense win?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 26.5%. These teams' recent games average 2.9 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 24.6% of 24,900. Early-season fixtures add 2.0 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Eldense are newly promoted — game 3 of their first ten at this level, where our rating knows them least. Promoted sides ran below their rating in nine of the last ten seasons — 26.5% wins in their first ten games where the rating expected 30.0% (2,793 games since 2012), fading but still visible through game nineteen.
