The four main football teams from LleidaAEM, Atlètic Lleida, Lleida CF, and Mollerussa—are heading into the final stretch of the season with survival as their primary goal, experiencing varying degrees of success in their respective leagues.

The current season has not been favorable for Lleida football in general. In Primera RFEF, AEM holds the tenth position with 27 points, maintaining a two-point lead over the relegation zone, currently occupied by Cacereño. After a season start marked by significant changes, including a coaching change and a return to their usual home ground, the team has had to fight to stabilize and avoid relegation, having competed in the Primera División promotion play-off the previous year.
The most complex situation is in Segunda RFEF, where Atlètic Lleida finds itself in a critical position. The Cappont-based team is sixteenth with 27 points, ten points from safety, and only an unexpected turn of events could lead them to the play-out. Their first campaign in this category, after acquiring the spot left by Lleida CF's relegation, has been challenging, and changes in the coaching staff and squad during the winter transfer window have not yielded the desired results.
Regarding Tercera RFEF, Lleida CF remains at the bottom of the table with 23 points, six points from staying up. Despite an initial improvement and accumulating points early in the year, the team has now gone ten matches without a win, complicating their fight to remain in the category.
Finally, Mollerussa, from the Pla d'Urgell region, has managed to reverse a dynamic similar to that of Lleida CF. A strong run at the end of the season has allowed them to move out of the relegation zone and position themselves seven points clear, breathing easier in this decisive phase of the competition.
