Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
After dropping two points in a 1-1 draw with ten-man Sporting Gijon, Las Palmas will be aiming to get back on course in La Liga 2 when they take on Albacete on Monday evening. La Union Deportiva are eager to climb to automatic promotion berth, but this game will be anything but a walk in the park for the visiting side. Both Cardona and Marvin are pushing for recalls to the starting XI, whereas Benito Ramirez is a major doubt.
El Queso Mecanico, on the other hand, aim to stay in the playoffs berth. Since Albacete recorded four wins in the previous five home fixtures, we predict that they are going to hold Las Palmas to a draw on Matchday 34. As for the home side, defender Diegui should be the only absentee this time out. In their last meeting at Estadio Carlos Belmonte the two teams played out a 1-1 draw.

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.
