Venue: Estadio Municipal de Anduva (6900 seats)

The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Mirandés are in the 10th position while the guesting Albacete worry at 19th.

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only three days ago in the Copa Del Rey. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Real Sociedad.

Mirandés form and stats

Mirandés have played 13 La Liga 2 games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 5-7-1 (wins-draws-losses). In general it's been a long time since Mirandés tasted defeat here at Estadio Municipal de Anduva, as they have taken at least one point from their last twelve home games. The trend of drawing games is also valid regardless of arena as Mirandés has five draws from their last five matches.

Mirandés faced defeat in their previous match, away at Real Sociedad (1-2). 2-2 away at Sporting Gijon before that.

This is expected to be a close game, with Mirandés perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Mirandés as a small favourite), we find six games. Mirandés has won one of these, drawn five and lost zero.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Mirandés, as the La Liga 2 home game vs Real Zaragoza is only three days away.

The Mirandés fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 15 in 13 matches. From these home matches, Mirandés have conceded only 9 goals.

Albacete form and stats

5 wins, 1 draw and 7 losses. That’s the product of Albacete playing as the away team in the La Liga 2 this season. Albacete are desperate to end a ten-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the Real Zaragoza fixture. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on L. Alcaraz González, the Albacete manager, as the last three away games were defeats.

Albacete played 1-1 against Ponferradina in their previous match. Prior to that match, the Albacete manager L. Alcaraz González faced defeat when travelling to Real Oviedo and losing 1-3.

The draw against Ponferradina came from a losing position. The Albacete manager L. Alcaraz González brought on Manuel Fuster as a substitute and the player scored to make the scores level.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found ten similar matches played by Albacete in our archives, and the results are: seven wins for Albacete, one draw and two defeats.

The visitors have scored 11 goals from 13 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Albacete have conceded 18 goals in these away matches.
