The last four meetings between these two have gone almost entirely Almeria's way, including a heavy win back in March. Whether that pattern holds up again is the interesting part here.

Worth flagging that both samples mix league games with cup and friendly fixtures, so it's not a pure Segunda División read. Even so, the general shape lines up with the league table: Almeria look the sturdier, more productive side right now.

It's a small sample spread across different seasons, so it shouldn't be treated as gospel, but three wins and a draw from four is a lopsided recent record.
League standings: a clear early-season gap
Six games into the campaign, Almeria sit fourth with 12 points from four wins and two losses, having scored 10 and conceded just 4. Real Sociedad II are down in 12th with 8 points from two wins, two draws and two losses, and a shakier 8-7 goal record.

| 15 | Celta de Vigo II | 7 | 2 | 2 | 3 | 8/11 | 8 |
It's still early days, only six matches each, but the gap in points and goal difference is already noticeable.
Players to watch
Almeria's goals have been shared around: Javi Muñoz has two in three appearances, Nico Melamed has two in four, and B. Cipenga has chipped in three assists in six games. That spread suggests more than one route to goal.
For Real Sociedad II, Gorka Gorosabel leads the way with two goals in six matches, with Dani Díaz adding two assists. On discipline, Almeria's Quim Junyent has already picked up a red card this season, while Real Sociedad II's Arkaitz Mariezkurrena and Ibai Aguirre are both sitting on two yellows apiece.

How this one could play out
Put the table position, the broader form numbers and the head-to-head record together, and Almeria look the team more likely to dictate this game. Real Sociedad II's home form in the sample has brought more losses and draws than wins.
That said, Real Sociedad II have held Almeria to a draw before in this fixture, so a routine away win isn't guaranteed just because the numbers lean one way.

Everything here points toward Almeria as the stronger side heading into this one, whether you look at the table, the broader form sample, or the recent head-to-head record. Real Sociedad II have shown flashes of resistance against this opponent before, so it isn't a foregone conclusion.
With no market attached to this fixture, though, there's no specific selection to put forward. This is one to file as a pass rather than force a bet where there isn't one on offer.
