UD Almería are preparing to face a new friendly match in the preparations for the league restart. This will be the third practice match during this World Cup break and it will be played in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, quite close to Qatar. The Rojiblancos touched down early morning last Thursday.

Rubi has already announced that he will give minutes to all the travelling players; at least that is his intention, as stated in the press conference prior to this upcoming friendly game. Hosts Al-Nassr FC, who have devoted themselves to UD Almería during their stay in Riyadh, are one of the two best football clubs in this country along with Al-Hilal Saudi FC, with whom UD Almería have already played last summer in England. They are rich football clubs in the Middle East that have brilliant players in their squad and therefore, it will be a stern test for the Rojiblancos, who will be getting back home on Saturday morning.
