Prediction: 2-0
Huesca
Almeria will be aiming to cement top position in La Liga2 when they host Huesca to their Estadio de los Juegos Mediterraneos on Matchday 18. The Andalusians are on a seven-game winning run in the Spanish second tier, and it is no wonder the odds for home win have been dropping. Despite failing to find the net in a 3-1 win over Real Valladolid, Umar Sadiq should continue to lead the line for the hosts, while Largie Ramazzani is pushing for a start.
Huesca, on the other hand, head into the match following a 1-1 draw with Ibiza. Los Azulgranas dropped two points in a goalless draw with Ibiza at the weekend, and seeing that they are not regarded as good travelers, home win should be considered. In their last meeting at the venue Almeria defeated Huesca thanks to Sekou Gassama’s goal.
