Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
There will be fireworks when Almeria and Cadiz face each other at Power Horse Stadium in a highly-anticipated Andalusian derby. Almeria aim to build on back-to-back wins over Mirandes and Ferrol and they are surely capable of making life difficult for the Yellow Submarine at home ground. The likes of Iddrisu Baba, Gui Guedes, and Lucas Robertone should miss out with injuries for the home side.
Cadiz, on the other hand, have been having their ups and downs of late, beating Albacete, losing to Elche, while sharing the spoils with Burgos. The Yellow Submarine are tough to beat at home, but given their difficulties on the road, we predict that the hosts are going to pick up all three points from Sunday’s showdown. Last time out Almeria crushed Cadiz 6-1 at Power Horse Stadium. Both Jose Mari and Luis Hernandez are sidelined with injuries for the visiting team.
Highlighted Team (Almeria):
UD Almeria is a Spanish club based in the autonomous community of Andalusia. Los Rojiblancos are one of the newer additions to the Spanish football system, with the club being founded on July 26, 1989.
Almeria suffered relegation to Segunda Division in the 2014/15 season, and they have been competing in the Spanish second tier ever since. Los Rojiblancos are well known for their white shirts with red stripes, while blue is the dominant colour of their away jersey. Sofiane Feghouli, Felipe Melo, Diego Alves, Veljko Paunovic, Aleix Vidal, Alvaro Negredo, Tomer Hemed, and Mate Bilic are some notable footballers who played for Almeria in the past. Fellow Andalusian clubs Sevilla, Malaga, and Granada are considered the club’s fiercest rivals.
The club’s biggest success in Copa del Rey came in the 2010/11 season when they made it to the semis of the prestigious competition. Nonetheless, Catalan giants Barcelona proved to be a big catch for Almeria in the Spanish Cup semi-finals.
