Match prediction for Almería vs Granada

The teams Almería and Granada face off at the Estadio de los Juegos Mediterráneos in a showdown of the 20th round of Liga Adelante. The recent head-to-head record favors the home team, which holds 3 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses in their last 7 encounters. The last direct meeting between these two teams ended on April 5, 2025, with Granada claiming victory (3-1). In this match, the home advantage may play a significant role, as Granada has shown notable differences in their performance at home versus away.

Analysis of Almería

The home team currently stands in 4th place with 32 points, having achieved 9 victories, 5 draws, and 5 losses. In their penultimate match, they suffered a home defeat against Burgos (1-2). In their last outing, they lost away to Málaga (2-1). This team maintains solid performance even when playing away, with 6 wins, 6 draws, and 3 losses in their last 30 matches; compared to 9 wins, 2 draws, and 4 losses on their home turf. In the last 9 home games, Almería registered 5 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses, earning 17 points out of a possible 27. Their attack has been consistent, scoring in 9 of their last 10 matches in this competition. At home, there tends to be a trend for goals, as 7 out of 9 matches ended with over 2.5 goals. In 19 matches this season, they have managed only one comeback in the 7 matches where they conceded the first goal.

Almería has been exhibiting a decline in form recently despite their attack showing consistency, as they lost away to Málaga by 2-1 in their last match, with Sergio Arribas scoring for their side. The team tends to stick with a 4-2-3-1 formation, with Thalys occupying the forward position and concentrating most scoring opportunities near the area. Just behind him, Sergio Arribas, Arnau Puigmal, and Adrián Embarba form the creative midfield tasked with maintaining constant offensive pressure, facilitating close-play, and improving infiltration opportunities. For the next round, the only confirmed absentee is striker Patrick Soko, who has been called up to represent his national team in the CAN.

Analysis of Granada

Following 4 wins, 9 draws, and 6 losses, the visiting team sits in 18th position with 21 points. Their last match ended in a home draw against Albacete (1-1), after previously losing away to Sporting Gijón (1-0). Interestingly, this team has performed better away than at home; in their last 30 matches, they have 6 wins, 4 draws, and 5 losses while away, compared to 4 wins, 6 draws, and 5 losses at home. In the last 9 away games in the league, Granada has logged 2 wins, 4 draws, and 3 losses, achieving 10 points from 27 available. Their defensive solidity has not been their strong suit, conceding goals in 7 of their last 10 matches, but their attack has been consistent, scoring in 7 of the last 10 games in this competition. In their away games for this season, there is a trend of few goals, as 4 out of the last 9 matches played ended with fewer than 1.5 goals. In 19 matches this competition, they only managed a single comeback in the 9 matches where they conceded first.

Granada is having a tough campaign despite their attack showing regularity, settling for a home draw against Albacete last round, scoring through José Manuel Arnáiz. The team predominantly plays in a 4-3-3 formation, with Jorge Pascual centralized as the offensive reference and aspiring to finish most plays. On the flanks, Souleymane Faye and Alex Sola play crucial roles in attacking corridors with intensity, frequently appearing in the box, and speeding up combinations, keeping the team positioned in the attacking half. Goalkeeper Luca Zidane, selected for the CAN, along with suspended defender Oscar Naasei, are confirmed absentees for the next round.
