Granada FC welcome the visitors Albacete Balompie S.A.D. in the Spanish La Liga 2 – Round 20. The match will be held on Friday, January, 4th, at the Estadio Nuevo Los Carmenes (Granada).
Having dropped the La Liga 2 seasons back, Granada FC desperately want to compete there again. And their desire is presently consistent with their performance. The team are leading the Segunda Division after 19 rounds, featuring an away 1:1 draw against Numancia in the last round though. Overall, the hosts do whatever it takes them to win, i.e. they play efficiently, without wasting effort. In their 9 home encounters, for example, Granada gained 6 wins, 3 of which ended in a 1:0 scoreline, another win was over Osasuna, 2:0. 6 of these 9 matches were underscoring.

Albacete Balompie S.A.D. also look to advance to the La Liga, and they are just 1 point behind the leader. In the last round, the guests got a frugal win over Rayo Majadahonda, 1:0.
Both Friday opponents are very cautious in their defense. Granada allowed 13 goals; Albacete did 3 goals more. The leaders will probably meet for a result, not for entertainment. The density of the standings is that high that, losing 3 points, the leader may go down to the 3rd, or yet the 4th place at once. This strategy will most likely lead to a small number of opportunities, and, therefore, goals. 11 of 19 Albacete’s matches produced under 2.5 goals, Granada were underscoring in 12 rounds. In a half of their 6 previous official meetings, the opponents did not please their fans with an abundance of goals. The tournament placement will certainly affect the level of responsibility in the coming clash. Either side will first look to secure their goal – it’s better to take 1 point than no points at all. Most probably, the rivals will not score over 2 goals, or, they may possibly end level, 0:0.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals.
