Almeria – Real Madrid

The first game of the 15th round of La Liga is the meeting of Almeria and Real Madrid. Both teams are in absolutely different poles in the standings. Almeria are in 17th position with a total of 10 points and Real Madrid is in the first place with 36 points in its assets. The match will be played at the stadium "Mediterraneo" on Friday. Betting on home win are accepted at Bet365 at odds of 15.00 and for the guests is 1,18.

This meeting comes at a very inopportune moment for Almeria. They are in a series of eight consecutive games without a win. Also, the team is now without a coach and the chaos on the field for them will be full. Almeria soon will be in the danger zone as the last team is level on points with them. As hosts Almeria have no victory and all their two wins came away from "Mediterraneo". This fact and the fact that they are playing against Real Madrid putted a pressure over them and maybe only a miracle can save them. The last victory of Almeria came in September, when managed to win as guests over Deportivo La Coruna. The following results have been discouraging and after the last loss in the last round by SD Eibar with 5-2, the coach of the team Francisco Rodriguez was released. For the match against Real Madrid, current assistant of Rodriguez - Jamie Ramos, will lead the team. There is no information about injured or suspended players in the team of Almeria; even midfielder Jose Verza will be back to play.

Real Madrid are in excellent shape. Royal Club is in a dominant position and their series of 19 consecutive wins is just incredible. This figure is a true record of a team in Europe, but Real Madrid will not stop here and will try to reach another record of 24 wins set by the Brazilian team Coritiba. For this reason, Real Madrid will not underestimate any opponent and smash mercilessly even teams like Almeria, using all of its available composition of stars. In addition to hold first place in La Liga, Real Madrid managed to finish in first place in the group stage of the Champions League with full points. The last match of Champions League was not with optimal composition but now Almeria will have serious problems after Pepe, Benzema, Marcelo and Carvajal are back in form. Remains only injured Luka Modric, but his absence will hardly matter.
