Eldense

LDLLLL 📉

Eldense will be hoping to bounce back here after a 1-0 La Liga 2 loss in their previous game against Real Valladolid.

In that game, Eldense managed 36% possession and 11 shots on goal with 3 of them on target. Real Valladolid had 17 attempts at goal with 5 on target. Monchu (81') scored for Real Valladolid.

Eldense haven’t exactly had impressive attacking statistics of late. Their ‘goals for’ figure stands at just 3 versus opponents over the course of their previous six outings. In those games, Eldense have also seen the number of goals against them total 13. That sort of trend won’t necessarily be carried forward into this game, though.

Going into this contest, Eldense haven’t won at home in the past 2 league games.

Albacete

LLDDLW

Albacete will go into the encounter after a 1-0 La Liga 2 win with the eclipse of Tenerife in their most recent fixture.

The stats don’t lie, and Albacete have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, seeing their opponents hit 9 goals in all. Defensively, Albacete have clearly had some problems.

📰 Team News: Eldense

The Eldense boss Fernando Estévez doesn’t have any fitness concerns to speak of coming into this match with a fully injury-free squad to choose from.

It looks as if Eldense look set to kick off with a 4-4-2 formation in the match featuring Ian Mackay, Pedro Capo, Carlos Hernandez, Nacho Monsalve, Marc Mateu, Jesus Clemente, Sergio Ortuno, David Timor Copovi, Ivan Chapela, Florin Andone and Alex Bernal.

📰 Team News: Albacete

From a largely full-strength group, there’s only the one fitness issue for the Albacete manager Rubén Albés to be concerned about. Diegui (surgery) won’t be playing here.

We are inclined to think that Queso Mecánico seem most likely to begin the game with a 4-4-2 system, starting the game with Tomas Vaclik, Carlos Munoz, Juan Antonio, Antonio Cristian, Julio Alonso, Juanma Garcia, Agus Medina, Lander Olaetxea, Manuel Fuster, Alberto Quiles and Fidel Chaves.

🔮 Prediction

We’ve got the feeling that Albacete would be disappointed if they were not to put a goal past this Eldense lineup, however that might not quite be enough to prevent defeat.
