Albacete vs Leganes Prediction and Betting Tips 4 January 2026

Albacete host Leganes in a matchup between two sides trending in opposite directions but with plenty of goals in their recent outings. Given the number of absentees in the away team, our prediction points toward a 2-1 home win. El Queso Mecanico are unbeaten in five and produced another solid display in a 1-1 draw with Granada, keeping their momentum intact. Their home performances remain steady with 1.40 points per game, while their matches at the Carlos Belmonte average 2.80 total goals. Albacete score 1.20 and concede 1.60 per home match, and with 70% BTTS overall, their games are rarely quiet. Marin and Pepe remain sidelined, but there are no additional absences disrupting the squad.

The capital club, meanwhile, continue to suffer from inconsistency. Leganes have taken just 0.20 points per game at home of late, but their away record (1.40 PPG) keeps them competitive. Their away matches are wide open, averaging 3.60 goals, while they score 2.00 goals per away game but keep 0% clean sheets. However, suspensions to Aguilar Lopez and de la Fuente, along with multiple injuries (Pulido, Pena, Figueredo), leave their defence significantly weakened.

As Leganes head into Sunday's clash with a severely-weakened squad, Home Win is our main betting tip for this matchup. Over 1.5 (64% H2H) and Over 2.5 goals (50%) bets also seem appealing.

This Segunda Division match will be played on Sunday 4 January 2026 at 17:30.
