On March 30, at the "Estadio Carlos Belmonte", the 33rd round match of the Spanish Segunda will take place, where "Albacete" will face "Mirandes". I propose a bet on goals/cards/winner for this match.
"Albacete"
The team occasionally played in La Liga in the last century, though without any significant success. However, for more than two decades now, they haven't managed to return even for a year, while they have spent quite a few seasons in the third Spanish division. Yes, after another return, they managed to finish in the top-6 of Segunda and played in the playoffs. But it was unsuccessful, and the next, previous season, brought a much more modest thirteenth place.
It can already be stated that Alberto Gonzalez and his wards will finish the new season at about the same level. Well, at least they managed to avoid the serious threat of relegation to the third league once again. Wins are roughly equal to draws and losses. On the other hand, a 2-0 with "Sporting Gijon" - the third victory in the last four matches.
"Mirandes"
The club is much more modest than even their next opponent, although the latter is not a grand either. But the visitors only debuted in Segunda in 2012. And, although they were relegated to the third division for a couple of years, in general, they have become regulars at the second level of Spanish football. The only concern was the trend of worsening positions over several years, to the point that last spring they were in a "borderline" eighteenth place.
Well, in the new season, they not only improved but such a leap pleasantly surprised everyone. The club is fighting for a ticket to La Liga, and directly. What lets them down is the inability to secure victories away from home, which became apparent in 2025. They played "Racing Santander" at home - and they won it.
Match facts
- "Albacete" has won three of the last four matches

H2H
In the last six head-to-head matches, only once did the hosts not win - they ended in a draw at this same stadium in May last year.
Albacete vs Mirandes Prediction
Bookmakers expect an equal but not bright fight. However, it seems that both clubs are in good form. We expect a "total over 2.0 goals" here (odds - 1.78).
