Almeria vs Barcelona – After losing to Girona FC 6-2 in their previous La Liga encounter, UD Almera will be looking to avenge that defeat here.

UD Almera had 49% of the game’s control and 16 total attempts, four shots on target, two of which were on goal. Largie Ramazani (66′) and El Bilal Touré (81′) scored goals for UD Almera.

Although UD Almera has been giving goals away quite frequently lately, they have also been successful in scoring goals for themselves.

In six of their most recent games, UD Almera have had their goal broken in addition to five  of those games having goals scored. Of course, this might not be a continuation of that pattern.
