Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Almeria
Match Time & Date:

18:15
Prediction: 2-0
Lugo
Almeria will look to make amends for a 2-0 loss to Zaragoza when they take on Lugo on day 31 of the current La Liga 2 campaign. The Andalusians have a chance to regain top position in the standings, and they are likely to go all guns blazing at Lugo. Despite failing to find the net in the last league match, Nigeria international Umar Sadiq should continue to lead the line for the hosts, while all Chumi, Ivan Martos, Lucas Robertone, Daniel Carrico, and Juanjo Nieto should miss out with injuries.
The visitors, on the other hand, aim to stay in the playoffs race, but seeing that they often struggle on the travels, we are tempted to put our money on the home side. David Mayoral is sidelined with a meniscus injury, but he should be the only absentee in the visiting side.
