Recap
Almeria was defeated by Sevilla in the last round but deserved to get a positive result. This was the 5th defeat in the last 6 matches, the paradox is that during this time they have beaten the leader Barcelona. He fell to the penultimate position, however, the situation is fluid in the battle for survival. They are very strong at home with 7-1-5 stats and the only absence today are Akieme (25/1), Toure (19/6), and Melero (15/2). The draw against Getafe was a positive result for Cadiz. They remained above the relegation zone, with just +1 point, winning just once in the last 9 away league matches (1-3-5). Coach Sergio has serious problems, especially in defense, and can’t count on Ledesma (25/0 first goalkeeper suspended), Alcaraz (20/2), Fali (18/0 key defender suspended), Carcelén (18/0 key defender suspended), Ocampo (18/1), Zaldúa (10/0), and Cala (3/0). The absence of goalkeeper Ledesma is very important because he is always one of the best-performing players. This is an ideal chance for Almeria to finally back on the winning way and take an important victory.
