Almeria vs Atletico Madrid Prediction: Expect a win for the guests

Prediction for the match between Almeria and Atletico Madrid, which will take place on January 15. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Almeria has long been out of the Spanish Cup, so after the season's resumption, the future hosts have played only two matches in La Liga. First, Almeria drew away with Cadiz 1:1. Then she lost on the home field to Real Sociedad 0:2. Before the start of Saturday's pool of the 17th round of La Liga, Almeria is in the 14th position, but only two points ahead of Cadiz who is in the relegation zone. That said, Almeria's home statistics are sixth in the division, with five wins in eight games, three losses, and a goal difference of 13:10.

In the last round of the Spanish La Liga, they lost 0:1 to Barcelona; although they scored two goals, but didn't score once. Atletico will likely come back in the upcoming game. It should be noted that before the match against the Catalans, the team had a 5-match winning streak. The Madrid players are in great shape. However, the position of Atletico Madrid is not the best; after the defeat, the team dropped to sixth place, but they have the opportunity to return to the top 4, beating on the road Almeria. Villarreal played a draw with Celta, and Betis will later play a match on the reporting tour due to participation in the Super Cup of Spain in Saudi Arabia. So the visitors are fully motivated. The away statistics of Atletico is the fourth in the division, +5=1-2, 12:6 goal difference.

Almeria can be called a convenient opponent for Atletico because they have won their last three personal meetings with their future opponent and generally have a significant historical advantage over the opponent. Despite last week's loss to Barcelona, Atletico itself is in good shape and highly motivated in the standings. If they win on Sunday, they can climb up to the fourth place, and the away statistics are among the best in La Liga. We believe the Madrid team has an excellent chance to win the upcoming game, and as for the total, we do not expect high performance from the forthcoming meeting.
