UD Almería gear up for challenging test at Ipurúa
The Rojiblancos adjust to SD Eibar’s pitch conditions ahead of Sunday's tough-looking encounter
UD Almería are putting the finishing touches on their preparations for Sunday’s tough encounter against SD Eibar. The team have been acclimating to the conditions they will face at Ipurúa Stadium, with the weather expected to be unpleasant, similar to recent conditions in Almería.
The Rojiblancos have been training at their usual training ground due to rain and the recent reseeding of the pitch at the UD Almería Stadium. They will have their final session at Ipurúa on Saturday, fine-tuning their tactics before heading to the Basque Country.
SD Eibar’s strong home form, combined with UD Almería’s historically poor record at Ipurúa, will provide a significant challenge for Rubi’s men.
After training in Almería, the travelling squad will head to Eibar via Bilbao, where they will take a charter flight to the Basque capital to prepare for Matchday 23.
