Almería ‘B’ to exhaust automatic promotion possibilities in Antequera

The youngsters, who have played one game less, have the opportunity of opening up a gap to the Malaga players

The UD Almería ‘B’ need to exhaust their automatic promotion possibilities to the Segunda Division RFEF in Antequera. In addition, the Rojiblancos - who have played one game less due to the postponement of their league commitment to El Palo - have the opportunity to open up a gap to the opponents this weekend. The Academy players sit fourth with a club coefficient of 1,59, while Antequera are fifth with a coefficient of 1,52. The young players are visiting El Maulí stadium on Sunday (kick-off 6:00 p.m. Spain Time)

The Almería ‘B’ hopefuls have been working on improving their shooting accuracy during the week. Let’s not forget that they were the Tercera Division highest-scoring players within group IX (subgroup ‘A’) in the first half of the campaign. Not surprisingly, they did not take their chances during this mini-league for promotion, what has prevented them from wrapping up victories.

The gap between the Indalicos and the second place that gives access to the higher league is down to 6 points, however the table is not updated yet, since the match against El Palo will be played at the Anexo Juegos Mediterraneos on Sunday, 28 April (kick-off 6:00 p.m. CEST). A victory over Antequera is essential for the UD Almería squad to be able to face the postponed league appointment with more options to approach the automatic promotion spots.

There are neither crocked nor suspended players. All of them are available to feature in the next game. Largie Ramazani remains a doubt due to the fact that the UD Almeria first-team play their LaLiga SmartBank fixture on the same day in Miranda de Ebro (Castilla y Leon).
