Home victory still elusive for UD Almería 'B' at the Anexo
The UDA Academy prospects chase long-awaited 3 points on familiar turf in crucial fight for survival
UD Almería ‘B’ will make another push for their first home victory this Sunday when they welcome UD Melilla to the Anexo at 12 noon, in their final fixture of the season’s first half (Matchday 15). The young Rojiblancos, still winless at their usual ground, know that securing 3 points is essential as they battle to climb out of the relegation zone.
Despite playing 7 of their 8 home matches at the Anexo pitch, the side has suffered 5 straight defeats there, with only a goalless draw against At. Antoniano breaking the sequence two weeks ago. Their lone home success so far came at the Francisco Pomedio Stadium in Huércal de Almería, temporary home while the Anexo pitch was being replaced, where they edged Yeclano 1-0.
With 2 away fixtures looming before the midpoint of the campaign, the pressure is on UD Melilla, sitting just one spot above UD Almería 'B' in the standings, represent direct rivals in the battle to avoid the drop.
Regardless of the opponents, the Indálicos must claim a home win to keep their survival hopes alive, however distant they may seem.
