Almeria
Almeria came out with intent, pressing high and dictating the tempo from the outset. Their early breakthrough set the tone, and they continued to exploit spaces behind Celta de Vigo II’s back three. The midfield pairing of S. Džodić and Javi Muñoz provided stability, while the attacking trio behind Miguel de la Fuente created constant problems for the visitors. Defensively, Almeria were solid, limiting Celta de Vigo II to just one shot on target and keeping a clean sheet without picking up any bookings.
Key Players
Strengths
Weaknesses
Celta de Vigo II
Celta de Vigo II struggled to recover from Almeria’s early double blow. Their 3-4-3 formation aimed for attacking width, but the side lacked cutting edge in the final third, registering just one shot on target despite 12 attempts. The midfield was often bypassed, and the back three were exposed by Almeria’s quick transitions. Discipline was an issue, as the visitors picked up the game’s only yellow card and committed just six fouls, showing a lack of aggression in key duels.

Tactical Analysis
Almeria’s 4-2-3-1 formation gave them numerical superiority in midfield, allowing them to dictate play and break quickly through the flanks. The double pivot shielded the back four effectively, while the attacking trio exploited gaps behind Celta de Vigo II’s wing-backs. The visitors’ 3-4-3 system was ambitious but left them exposed on transitions, and their inability to convert possession into clear chances was telling. Set pieces offered Celta de Vigo II some hope, but Almeria’s defense stood firm. Substitutions from both sides aimed to inject energy and address tactical mismatches, but neither altered the flow of the game significantly. Almeria’s structure remained disciplined, while Celta de Vigo II’s changes failed to spark a comeback.
Turning Point
Nico Melamed’s 18th-minute goal, which put Almeria 2-0 up and gave them full control of the match.

Almeria vs Celta de Vigo II: Match Preview
Almeria enter this fixture in third place, having won three of their opening five matches and boasting a perfect home record (two wins, six goals scored). Their recent form is upward, with consecutive wins and just four goals conceded overall. Celta de Vigo II, sitting mid-table but unbeaten away, have shown resilience with two clean sheets on their travels and a balanced goal difference.
From a statistical perspective, both sides are closely matched: each averages 1.6 goals scored and 0.8 conceded per game over their last five. Almeria’s attack at home (3.0 goals/game) faces a Celta II defence yet to concede away, while the visitors’ attack has produced only two goals in two away matches. Both teams trend under 2.5 goals (Almeria 40%, Celta II 50% over 2.5), and clean sheet rates are strong (40% and 50% respectively). First-half goal output is modest, with just eight combined in the last five for both sides, indicating a likely cagey opening.
Given the near-parity in rates and defensive solidity, the model projects a low-scoring, tightly contested match. The most likely scenario is a draw, with neither side likely to dominate for extended periods. Margins are slim, and a single moment could separate the teams, but the underlying numbers point to a 1-1 outcome.
