Almeria takes Valencia in a match of the last 38th round of the Spanish Primera Division. The meeting at the stadium "Mediterraneos" is on Saturday, 23 May 2015. The clash between them lays a lot of unknowns, as the outcome is important for a several teams from La Liga. The hosts are in the great battle to remain in the league next season, and guests are in the fight for a place in the Top 4. The odds for the game offered by the leading bookmaker bet365 are as follows: 5.00 for a home win, with a draw at 4.33 and 1.62 for the victory of the guests.
Almeria takes the penultimate 19th place in the Primera Division with a total of 32 points. The team is in desperate shape and in the last four games recorded three defeats and one draw, all at over 2.5 goals. For the composition of Almeria are three variants to escape the relegation in the lower level of the Spanish football. The first option is a victory over Valencia and one of the rivals Deportivo La Coruna and Granada must complete in a draw. The second option is victory again, as Eibar also must win its match, and Deportivo La Coruna and Granada must lose. The third option for Almeria is to defeat the Valencia, with equality for Eibar and loss of Deportivo La Coruna and Granada. From these accounts, it is clear that the hosts will be looking for more of a compulsory victory. The defender Angel Trujillo is suspended and will miss the game. With injuries are also two defenders of the team in the face of Ximo Navarro and Fran Velez.
Valencia occupies the fourth place with a total of 74 points. The "Bats" have chances for the third position, but is possible to be pushed out of the Top 4 and to go fifth. So, this fight must be won to take their place in the playoffs of the Champions League next season. Valencia may move Atletico Madrid from the third place only if the team of Diego Simeone lose from Granada with a statutory success for Valencia against Almeria. So, if the boys of Nuno Santo failed to win against Almeria and the fifth Sevilla win the match against Malaga, automatically "bats" will split with the Champions League. Valencia are unbeaten in the last five matches in La Liga, but in the previous two games make draws against Real Madrid (2:2) and against Celta Vigo (1:1). Andre Gomez is injured, Rodrigo is punished and Enzo Perez is questionable for this important last match of La Liga.
Recommended bet: For Valencia @ 1.62 at bet365
