We reckon that Castellón seem likely to elect for a 4-4-2 lineup, settling for Romain Matthys, Beñat Gerenabarrena, Alberto Jiménez, Fabrizio Brignani, Lucas Alcázar, Pablo Santiago, Ronaldo, Diego Barri, Adam Jakobsen, Álex Calatrava and Ousmane Camara.
For this match, we think that Castellón must be fancied to get a goal against this UD Almería team, however it is unlikely to be enough to avoid defeat.
We think that it’s going to be a narrow 2-1 victory for UD Almería at the end of this one. Expecting it to be very competitive.
