Eldense vs Albacete prediction, H2H & Probable Line-ups - November 16, 2024
Eldense
On November 16, "Pepico Amat" will host the 15th round of Spain's Segunda Division, with Eldense facing Albacete. For this match, I suggest a bet on goals, cards, or the winner.
Eldense
The team last played in the Segunda in 1964. In recent years, however, Eldense has achieved consecutive promotions, moving up from the third division in a single season (2022/2023). In their comeback season in Spain’s second division, they managed to secure 16th place.
Currently, the "Azulgranas" can only dream of a similar position. While they initially managed some wins, October saw them only draw against Deportivo and progress past Atlético Paso in the cup, losing all other matches. After a rain-delayed match against Huesca, they put up a fight against Granada but ultimately lost 2-3.
Albacete
Two decades ago (2003-2005), Albacete was last seen in La Liga. Since then, they've dipped into the third division occasionally but have mostly spent their years in the Segunda, including the past two seasons. However, last season saw a drop from sixth to thirteenth place.
This season, Albacete is performing similarly to the previous one. They exited the cup after a loss to Europa and, following a couple of early wins, managed only two more victories up to November. Still, they've only lost once in their last six matches (to Almeria) and recently drew 2-2 with Oviedo.
Match Facts
- Eldense has lost five of their last six league matches.

Head-to-Head
Last season, these teams played their first official matches, with "El Queso Mecánico" (Albacete) securing a draw at home and a win on the road.
Prediction: Eldense vs Albacete
Bookmakers favor the home team, Eldense, playing on their own turf. However, with both sides striving for a positive result, "over 2.5 goals" seems a solid option (odds: 1.92).
