Prediction: 2-2
Elche
All eyes will be on Power Horse Stadium when Almeria and Elche lock horns in the La Liga 2 derby on Monday evening. The Andalusians failed to win the previous four league matches, but they are still seen as favourites to beat los Franjiverdes in front of home fans. There are no fresh injury concerns in the home team, but midfielder Dion Lopy misses out through suspension.
Elche, on the other hand, aim to climb to the automatic promotion berth. As both Elche and Almeria will adopt an attack-minded approach in Monday’s derby, there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. You should bear in mind that both teams have found the net in each of their last three meetings in all competitions. Experienced forward Josan serves a one-game ban for the visiting team due to the accumulation of yellow cards.
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.
