Albacete take on the visitors Cordoba at “Carlos Belmonte” in the opening clash of the second round of the Spanish LaLiga2. The game will be played on Friday, August 25th.

The team have not got the direct pass to the higher division because of the goal conceded on the road in the battle against Lorca FC 1:1, 0:0, however, it managed to beat Baleares 1:1, 2:1 and Valencia B 1:0, 0:0. Albacete opened a new season with 0:0 draw against Granada CF. Thus, it should be mentioned that the side has not been defeated since the 23rd of April across 10 official clashes, having gained three victories and seven draws in them.

Cordoba finished the previous season sitting on the 10th position in the LaLiga2 standings with 55 points taken and 42-52 goal difference, having gained four triumphs and a draw at the end of the season. Still, the start of a new season wasn’t very successful for “Los Califas” as the team was broken by Cadiz CF with 1:2 scoreline at the home ground. Cordoba’s weak point is their performance on the road: in 2017 the side recorded just one win alongside with three draws and eight losses in 12 away encounters.
Albacete won five out of six recent head-to-heads against Cordoba. Taking that into account as well as the hosts’ undefeated streak and poor results of “Los Califas” at away turfs, Albacete’s triumph looks like a solid selection for the game.
Prediction for the match: Albacete to win.
