Possibly the saddest match of the season is on the horizon. Almería and Cádiz, two of the three relegated teams this season, are set to face off. Both sides are eager to end on a high note with a victory. Almería, in particular, is keen to win at home for the first time this season. It’s the last match for coach Pepe Mel, who has had mixed results during his short stint with the team.
For Almería, the focus is on capturing that elusive home victory. Pepe Mel’s performance has been better away from home, but a win at the Power Horse Stadium would be a fitting farewell. On the other hand, Cádiz has little at stake after their relegation was confirmed. Coach Pellegrino plans to give playing time to less regular players and aims to sign off the season with a positive performance, despite several key absences.
In this Andalusian derby, all eyes will be on forwards Luis Suárez and Guardiola. Both strikers have had challenging seasons and will be looking to end on a high by adding to their goal tallies. While both teams aim to finish with a win, the advantage may lie with Almeria being the home team. Prediction: Almería 2-1 Cádiz. The hosts are motivated to claim their first home win, which could give them the edge over Cádiz, who are still coming to terms with their recent relegation woes.
