Albacete – Valladolid

Albacete host Valladolid in a clash that could prove pivotal for both sides’ survival hopes. The home side sit 21st with just one point from five games, having failed to win and conceding eight goals, while the visitors sit 17th with four points, a solitary win and a goal deficit of five. Valladolid will be looking to build on their recent victory and climb out of the lower mid‑table, whereas Albacete must turn the tide if they are to avoid a further slide toward the relegation zone. Their head‑to‑head record this season offers no clear advantage, setting the stage for a tightly contested encounter.
