Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
After holding Levante to a goalless draw in Valencia, Albacete will be aiming to get back on course when they take on Granada at Estadio Carlos Belmonte on Matchday 32. El Queso Mecanico are on a five-game winning run at home ground, and they are surely capable of matching los Granadinos. Midfielder Maikel Mesa is banned for the match, while Alvaro Rodriguez misses out with a muscle problem. Defender Carlos Isaac is a major doubt, and he will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
The visitors, on the other hand, aim to stay in the race for automatic promotion, but beating Albacete on the road is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on draw. As for the visiting side, all Ruben Rochina, Raul Torrente, and Jorge Molina remain on the sidelines with injuries.

Established during the World War II (August, 1940), Albacete are a Spanish club that welcome their rivals at Carlos Belmonte, the stadium with the capacity of 17,524 people. Albacete compete in Segunda Division nowadays, but during the 1990s they established themselves as the La Liga regular.
Their best ranking in the Spanish top flight came in the 1991/92 season when they finished the campaign in 7th position in the standings. El Queso Mecanico (Clockwork Cheese) have never represented Spain in European competitions. Legendary Spain international Andres Iniesta is the symbol of the club. Born in Albacete, Iniesta helped his hometown club avoid the bankruptcy in December 2011 as he became the club’s major shareholder.
As a result, Iniesta was honoured with a statue in his home province of Albacete. El Queso Mecanico wear white shirts and white shorts when playing at home, while black and purple are the dominant colours of their away kit.
