Robles Lleida is virtually relegated after suffering a 62-92 defeat against Cortegada this Saturday, marking their sixteenth loss of the season and their fourth in a row.

The team coached by Rubén Petrus is now four victories away from the safety zone with only five matches remaining in the calendar. Their chances of staying in the league are further diminished as they hold a losing head-to-head record against their main direct rivals.
The game was dominated by the home side, who currently sit fourth in the standings. Although Robles Lleida managed to stay competitive during the early stages of the first quarter, Cortegada controlled the rest of the match, winning all four periods and steadily increasing their lead until the final whistle.
