Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
All eyes will be on Power Horse Stadium when Almeria and Deportivo La Coruna go head to head in the La Liga 2 round 15. The Andalusians aim to build on a 2-1 win over Elche, but Sunday’s clash will be anything but a walk in the park for los Rojiblancos. Dion Lopy serves a one-game ban due to the accumulation of yellow cards, while fellow midfielder Lucas Robertone remains on the sidelines with injury.
The Galicians, on the other hand, defeated Eibar 1-0 thanks to Mario Soriano’s late stunner, but their display in the second half was anything but good. As Almeria are tough to beat at home, we do not believe that the visitors are capable of grabbing more than one point from Sunday’s encounter. Defender Rafael Obrador is banned for the visitors, but head coach Oscar Gilsanz has no fresh injury worries ahead of the trip to Andalusia.
