Almeria – Valladolid

Match analysis

Almería host a struggling Valladolid at the Estadio de los Juegos Mediterráneos, looking to extend their solid start to the campaign. Sitting fifth with nine points from three wins and a tidy 8‑4 goal difference, the home side will aim to keep the pressure on the top half of the table. Valladolid, languishing in 17th place with just four points after one win, one draw and three defeats, have conceded seven times and will need to tighten up at the back if they hope to climb out of the relegation zone. The two clubs have yet to meet this season, but the disparity in form and firepower suggests Almería enter as clear favorites.
