UD Almería eager to win at home to secure LaLiga Santander status

The Rojiblancos, who are one of the best home teams in the league, are one victory away from achieving their goal as they host direct rivals Real Valladolid CF this Sunday

UD Almería are to play the last fixture of the season at the Power Horse Stadium as they are hosting direct rivals Real Valladolid CF in a survival clash. In fact, a victory would mean reaching their goal without looking at the results obtained by other sides. 
 
The Rojiblancos are recording a brilliant campaign at home; they are the seventh best home team in the league with 10 victories after beating FC Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid CF, Atlético de Madrid and Villarreal CF, and they are also the sixth team who scores the most goals on home turf. 
 
In their last performance in front of their fans, the Indálicos are determined to wrap up this great season and seal safety at a sell-out Power Horse Stadium.
 
The setting is ideal for everything to turn out as desired, but there will be tough rivals to take on, Real Valladolid CF, who are also risking it and will come down south to try to beat the Rojiblancos. 
 
Rubi has been putting his players through their paces to become the best version of themselves and weaken the strengths of Pucela, who after five consecutive defeats, they beat FC Barcelona last Tuesday. Away from home, they do not usually put in the same performances than at home, but they have been able to win in San Sebastián and Villarreal. 
 
UD Almería have significant absentees in their attacking lines. Léo Baptistão is injured and Luis Suárez, suspended, and despite Lázaro Vinicius's starring role in the last games, there is a lack of attacking troops. Perhaps, El Bilal Touré may be there, after the injury he suffered in March at the Sánchez Pizjuán stadium and that forced him to undergo surgery. His recovery has been spectacular and he has started training with the group. It is necessary to determine whether or not he will be available, and how long for.
