📰 Team News: UD Almería

It doesn’t get much better regarding selection, with just the lone fitness concern for the UD Almería manager Joan Rubi to be concerned about thanks to an almost full-strength set of players. El Bilal Touré (Muscle Injury) won’t play.

We think that UD Almería will possibly line up in a 4-2-3-1 formation for this game, beginning the first half with Fernando Martinez, Alejandro Pozo, Rodrigo Ely, Srdjan Babic, Alex Centelles, Cesar de la Hoz, Lucas Robertone, Adrian Embarba, Gonzalo Melero, Leo Baptistao and Luis Suarez.

🗞️ Team News: Mallorca

Out of a mainly full-strength group of players, there’s only the sole fitness issue for the Mallorca gaffer Javier Aguirre to be concerned about. Giovanni González (Knee Injury) misses out for this game.

It’s our belief that Los Bermellones seem most likely to begin the game with a 5-3-2 system, going with Predrag Rajkovic, Martin Valjent, Antonio Raillo, Jose Copete, Pablo Maffeo, Jaume Costa, I. Ruiz de, Manu Morlanes, Kang-In Lee, Vedat Muriqi and Amath Ndiaye.

🔮 Prediction

We’re thinking that Mallorca will surely be able to score a goal against this UD Almería side, however that probably shouldn’t be as many as the goals that they could concede.
