LaLiga has announced the dates and times of the first two Matchdays of the competition. After hosting Real Madrid CF, reigning league and Europe Champions, UD Almería will visit Elche CF at the Martínez Valero Stadium. The official meeting has been set for Monday, 22 August at 8pm (CEST) so the Indalicos will have a long week between one game and another.
The same will not happen on the third Matchday in which UD Almeria will welcome Sevilla FC, an encounter that will be taking place on Saturday, 27 July (KO 10pm CEST) five days after visiting Elche CF.
