Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Albacete play host to Tenerife at their Estadio Carlos Belmonte in a highly-anticipated Segunda Division game. El Queso Mecanico have been slipping down the standings week by week and, no doubt, they are eager to put an end to their five-game winless run and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at los Insulares. Defendr Juan Alcedo is pushing for a start, while Fidel remans on the sidelines with injury alongside Jaume Costa.
Tenerife, on the other hand, are not enjoying a season to remember, with the team sitting in the relegation zone and given their difficulties on the road, home win should definitely be considered. In their last meeting at the venue Albacete defeated Tenerife 1- 0 and we predict that history is going to repeat itself. Jose Amo remains in the recovery room, but the 26-year-old defender should be the only absentee in the away team.
Highlighted Team (Albacete):
Established during the World War II (August, 1940), Albacete are a Spanish club that welcome their rivals at Carlos Belmonte, the stadium with the capacity of 17,524 people. Albacete compete in Segunda Division nowadays, but during the 1990s they established themselves as the La Liga regular.
Their best ranking in the Spanish top flight came in the 1991/92 season when they finished the campaign in 7th position in the standings. El Queso Mecanico (Clockwork Cheese) have never represented Spain in European competitions. Legendary Spain international Andres Iniesta is the symbol of the club. Born in Albacete, Iniesta helped his hometown club avoid the bankruptcy in December 2011 as he became the club’s major shareholder.
As a result, Iniesta was honoured with a statue in his home province of Albacete. El Queso Mecanico wear white shirts and white shorts when playing at home, while black and purple are the dominant colours of their away kit.
