Atletico Madrid Team News

Atletico Madrid secured advance to the Champions League Round of 16, triumphing against Feyenoord away from home. In the upcoming final match of the group stage against Lazio, they only need a single point to secure the top spot, which would result in a more favorable draw for the next stage of the competition. Alongside their impressive European performance, Atletico can boast a strong showing in La Liga, currently holding the fourth position with 31 points before this round, trailing the leader and city rival, Real Madrid, by seven points. It’s worth noting that Atletico has one game in hand, and a victory in that match would narrow the gap even further.

In the previous league fixture, Atletico suffered a 1:0 defeat to Barcelona, with the lone goal scored by João Felix, who is still officially an Atletico player but is currently on loan to the Catalan team. Securing at least a draw in that match would have been crucial for Atletico. However, a triumph against Almeria would guarantee an advancement in the league standings. Notably, in this round, the third and second-placed teams in La Liga, Barcelona and Girona face each other.

Almeria Team News

Almeria had a catastrophic start to the new La Liga season, as reflected in their current position in the table. After fifteen matches, the visitors are the bottom-placed team in the championship, with only four points earned. Those four points came from draws, and Almeria has yet to secure a victory in the 15 matches played, making them a prime candidate for relegation to a lower division.

Almeria also has the weakest defense in La Liga, conceding 37 goals. It seems highly likely that this record will worsen after their encounter with Atletico Madrid. Given all the mentioned factors, it is pretty clear that the guests’ chances in the duel in Madrid are purely theoretical, and anything other than a convincing victory for Atletico would be a significant surprise for all football fans.
