'I expect the best CA Osasuna, but also the best UD Almería,' stated UD Almería head coach Rubi when looking ahead to Saturday's fixture at El Sadar Stadium (KO 4:15pm CEST/ Matchday 34).
'CA Osasuna are having a great season and have competed fiercely in all their matches,' stated the Rojiblancos' gaffer in regards to the next opponents' Spanish Cup final defeat to Real Madrid CF. On that subject, he also stressed: 'I'm pretty sure they want to celebrate a victory with the fans.'
Joan Francesc Ferrer Sicilia 'Rubi' described the Rojillos as a team that plays with great intensity. 'We're going to play in a great venue. Depending on the circumstances, they might play combinative or direct football, because they control any of these alternatives perfectly,' explained Rubi.
Speaking of his side, the Vilassar de Mar native underlined: 'We've trained really well this week and we've prepared well this game. Adding points will be really positive for us given our situation in the table,' although as he highlighted: 'We want to go all out to win because a triumph could help us get closer to our goal. We'd like to play without without serious relegation worries in the last games.'
