UD Almería 'B' aim to keep momentum going against La Unión Atlético
After securing their first home win of the season, UD Almería 'B' travel to Murcia determined to claim back-to-back victories against a side currently on a 7-match winless run
UD Almería 'B' face La Unión Atlético this Sunday at 12:30pm on Matchday 25, with their sights firmly set on collecting 3 more crucial points. The 'B' team head into the clash on the back of their first home victory of the season at the Anexo, having previously endured an 11-game winless streak. The result could mark a turning point as they continue their fight to avoid relegation.
They still have a significant gap to close, however, sitting well adrift of the safety zone, currently occupied by this weekend’s opponents.
La Unión Atlético hold a 12-point advantage over UD Almería 'B' but with 9 matches still remaining, there is still room for movement in the standings. To achieve what currently seems improbable, the Andalusian side must put together consecutive wins. Sunday offers an opportunity to do just that against a team that has recorded 2 draws and 5 defeats in their last 7 matches. It is the right moment to put the Murcia side under pressure on home soil.
That said, La Unión, who reached the promotion play-offs last season, will be eager to turn their fortunes around. Playing on artificial turf against a seasoned and experienced opponent will present a considerable challenge for the youthful Rojiblancos.
