Real Madrid vs Almeria Analysis
Real Madrid Preview
It has been a stunning first half to the season for Real Madrid, and they come into the La Liga matchups this weekend in good confidence after landing a huge 4-1 win in the Super Cup against Barcelona last weekend. The Spanish giants currently sit second in the standings, but a victory on Sunday could send them to the summit.
The hosts rank among the best in terms of La Liga team stats this term, as they boast the defensive record, and only Girona has netted more goals in the competition. Real also come into the weekend after winning each of their last three in the league.
Carlo Ancelotti’s side produced their best performance of the campaign so far in the Super Cup, with Vinicius Jr netting a stunning first-half hat-trick in El Clasico. The scoring was completed in the second period when Rodrygo fired home with just under half an hour remaining.
The Real Madrid players will have little rest in between matches, as they will also be in domestic cup action on Thursday. But, they should have far too much quality for Almeria in the league this weekend.
Almeria Preview
The Almeria standings make for grim reading at this stage of the campaign, as they sit rock-bottom in La Liga after going 20 matches without a win this term. A survival bid looks increasingly unlikely at this stage, with the team currently sitting ten points adrift from safety.
Almeria have picked up just six points this term, and no side in the competition have suffered more defeats. Meanwhile, the Spanish club ran among the lowest scorers in the league, and they have allowed more goals than any other side.
The La Liga player stats indicate that more will be expected of the players in the defensive positions, but that could be hard against a Real Madrid side that have been scoring goals with ease throughout the season.
However, huge confidence would have been taken from their previous match in the competition. Almeria played out a 0-0 draw against league-leaders Girona, and they restricted their high-flying visitors to just a single shot on target in 90 minutes.
Real Madrid vs Almeria Head to Head
Real boasts a dominant advantage in this fixture, having gone ten matches without defeat against Almeria. Across that period, Los Blancos have recorded nine wins, and they have averaged 3.6 goals per game. Real landed a 3-1 win in the reverse fixture between the sides this term.
