Almería vs Barcelona Prediction & Betting Tips - LaLiga
by Ian John in LaLiga Predictions
Almeria face Barcelona in their 18th home game of the season on Thursday, and they are still seeking their first win at the Power Horse Stadium. Their first win of the season came in March and they have added just one more to that number since. Unsurprisingly, Almeria are already relegated and Pepe Mel’s team will be playing only for pride in their remaining fixtures. It has been defensive issues that have stymied the team, with 70 goals conceded in 35 games, although they have scored a creditable 35 goals in those games. They have lost their last three home games, scoring in two of those defeats and they have scored a goal in four of their last five games. That included a 1-0 win over Rayo Vallecano a couple of weeks back, only their second win of the season.
Barcelona came into this game trailing the new La Liga champions Real Madrid by 14 points. They lead third-placed Girona by just one point. Scoring goals has not been a problem for the team this season as they have notched 72. Conceding goals, however, has been a problem with their 43 goals allowed representing 21 more than table-toppers Real Madrid have conceded in their 35 games. Aside from their two recent road losses to Real and Girona, Barcelona have won 10 and drawn two of their other dozen games. Both teams have scored in three of their last four games which exemplifies the issues that they have had defensively this season. However, there would be shock around Spain if Xavi’s team cannot land a victory away to the bottom club in La Liga this Thursday night.

Our Almería vs Barcelona Prediction
2 Goals Ahead Early Payout Offer
One of the worst feelings when placing a football bet is when the team that you have backed has gone into a multiple-goal lead only to be clawed back to a draw or to lose the game in question. This is something that bet365 has rectified for their bettors courtesy of this offer. If the team that you backed takes a two-goal lead your bet will be paid out as a winner. That is any two-goal lead so 2-0, 3-1, 4-2 etc will all be paid out early as a winner if your team is in that position. This is available in 80 different competitions including the major leagues across Europe and can be played on the full-time result market. Singles and multiples are both valid for this offer but you cannot bet on enhanced price markets. As with most promotions, if you cash out a bet in full, the bet will no longer be available for the offer in question. It also cannot be used if you bet on the draw on a game.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
