La Liga Preview

It has been a slightly strange season for Atletico Madrid in La Liga this term, as they have put in some excellent performances, before then failing to reach the same standards in their following match. The Spanish side comes into this weekend sitting fourth in the standings, and they could potentially move to within two points of second spot in the standings with maximum points. 

Atletico have picked up victories in three of their last five matches, and they ended a two-game wait for a win by landing maximum points in their previous outing. The Spanish giants got back on track with a dominant display at home against Las Palmas, with Marcos Llorente and Angel Correa both netting twice. Memphis Depay was also among the scorers in the victory.

It has been a season to forget to this point for Almeria, as they look on course to suffer relegation to the second tier. They come into this round of matches sitting bottom of the standings after failing to pick up a single victory in 25 outings this term. They have also suffered a league-high of 17 defeats in the competition this term. 

However, their recent outings have offered some hope, as they have avoided defeat in their last two after picking up back-to-back draws. Their most recent draw was picked up on the road against Granada, with Marc Pubill netting in the tie against their relegation rivals. 

Almeria vs Atletico Madrid Head to Head

Atletico have dominated their recent clashes against Almeria in La Liga, claiming victories in four of the last five. That includes a 2-1 success in the reverse meeting between the sides earlier this season. Almeria’s most recent win against their rivals was achieved at home in February 2014. 

Almeria vs Atletico Madrid Prediction

It has been a long wait for a first win in La Liga for Almeria this term, and there is no evidence to suggest that their wait will come to an end this weekend. We will be siding with Atletico to score maximum points by landing victory by at least a two-goal margin.
