Almeria Preview
Almeria’s long wait to return to the top flight of Spanish soccer did not start in the best way. However, little by little the team has become accustomed to the level of La Liga, and now it has at least managed to maintain its hopes of achieving the permanence alive. The team currently occupies the 14th place in the standings, 3 points from the relegation zone.
The Sevillian team will arrive to this match after losing 2-0 to Rayo Vallecano away from home. Before that loss, the team had gone three matches in a row without being defeated, the only win during that stretch coming at this venue and against Espanyol by a score of 3-1.
Indeed, being at home could be crucial for Almeria, given that it is the fifth-best home team in the league so far. The team has attained 19 of their 22 points this campaign in front of its home crowd, scoring 17 goals and conceding 12 in the process.
Possible Almeria lineup (4-2-3-1): Fernando Martinez; Houboulang Mendes, Rodrigo Ely, Srdjan Babic, Sergio Akieme; Samu Costa, Gonzalo Melero; Leo Baptistao, Lucas Robertone, Largie Ramazani; Luis Suarez.
Real Betis Preview
Although Real Betis is still in the midst of a very good campaign, it has suffered three defeats in its last four league matches that have complicated its fight for a place in the European competitions. However, the team is in seventh place in the standings, and only four points behind second place, so it cannot give up yet.
In order to get higher up the standings, the team will have to recover from a very painful defeat suffered last weekend at home against Celta de Vigo, in a match in which it even managed to be on top 2-1. That result came in the midst of a hectic week for Betis, but now, with six days of rest, the team will surely be able to show a better side of itself.
While it is not the best team playing away in the league, it is a condition in which Betis has performed well this year, winning four of the ten matches it has played in that condition.
Possible Real Betis lineup (4-2-3-1): Rui Silva; Youssouf Sabaly, Luiz Felipe, Germán Pezzella, Álex Moreno; Guido Rodríguez, Andrés Guardado; Luiz Henrique, Nabir Fekir, Sergio Canales; Borja Iglesias.
JefeBet Prediction
Although it has improved a lot, Almeria is still a very vulnerable team in defense, and Betis is a team with enough quality to take advantage of those weaknesses and produce a good offensive output in this match.
Moreover, it should also be kept in mind that Almeria has been looking very solid at home in recent weeks, so it will surely know how face a Betis defense that has allowed six goals in its last two appearances (30% of its total in the league season).
Both teams need to win at all costs, so we expect both to go on the attack from the very start and take advantage of their opponents’ defensive problems to at least try to score once.
Prediction: Both teams will score: Yes (ALM 1 – 1 BET).
