Girona vs Almeria. Prediction and Betting Tips for La Liga

Prior to a latest Cadiz clash, Girona head coach said that he worries about high competitiveness in the bottom half of La Liga standings. Michel felt distraught at the end of the match, because a 0:2 defeat left his team just four points clear of relegation zone, despite an 11th position in the standings. 

An upcoming home game against Almeria can turn out to be crucial in the relegation battle, because hosts will have much tougher opponents in five following La Liga matches - Atletico, Athletic and Rayo Vallecano. Hosts lost to Almeria in the previous head-to-head game, but Gironistas are incredibly strong at home, getting 18 of their 24 points at Montilivi. They lost only once in seven latest games. 

Lopez, Reinier, Kebe, Herrera, Gutierrez, Fernandez and Couto will miss the upcoming game. 

Almeria can get ahead of Girona and rise to 11th position in case of a victory in today's match. However, team might drop to relegation zone in case of a defeat, so today's match is very important for both sides. 

Moreover, Rubi promised that his team will stick to offensive style of play, which led the Red-Whites to just one clean sheet in the current season. Almeria surely need to improve their away performance, if they want to keep the La Liga spot, even Elche look better on the road. Six victories and four draws in 15 matches brought 22 points and a 15th position in the standings. In the most recent game team suffered a defeat to Betis (2:3).

Ely and Pozo will miss the upcoming game.
