Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
Almeria and Cadiz go head to head at Estadio de los Juegos Mediterraneos in the La Liga round 26. Los Rojiblancos aim to make amends for back-to-back defeats to Villarreal and Sevilla, and they are likely to go all guns blazing at the Yellow Submarine. Both Toure and Akieme limped off with injuries in the Andalusian derby, with Ramazani and Centelles likely to step up. Both Youba Diarra and Brian Ocampo miss out with injuries as well for the home side.
Meanwhile, the visitors played out a thrilling 2-2 draw with Getafe in their last league match. Cadiz are only one point clear of the relegation zone, meaning that Saturday’s clash is of big importance for them. Anyhow, the share of spoils is on the cards as Almeria are tough to beat at home. Defender Iza Carcelen misses the match through suspension, while both Youba Diarra and Brian Ocampo remain on the sidelines with injuries.
