Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Following back-to-back draws with Ferrol and Mirandes, Malaga will look to record their first win of the season when they take on Albacete on Matchday 3. Los Boquerones showed character in their first home game of the process, with substitute Dioni scoring a late equalizer and, as a result, the 34-year-old could sneak into the starting XI. Kevin Villodres suffered a serious injury at the weekend as well as his substitute Julen Lobete.
El Queso Mecanico, on the other hand, aim to keep their 100% record in the 2024/2025 season intact and given the current situation in Malaga’s dressing room, away triumph should be considered. Barring any fresh injury worries, Alberto Gonzalez is unlikely to make changes to the team that defeated Elche in their last league match. Midfielder Javi Villar remains doubtful for the visiting team and he will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
