Villarreal CF v UD Almeria - LaLiga EA Sports — Almeria host Granada in La Liga on Sunday.

The bottom two sides in La Liga lock horns as rock-bottom Almeria host 19th-placed Granada at the Power Horse Stadium on Sunday (October 1). The two sides are separated by just two points in the standings.

Almeria failed to get their season up and running, as they suffered a 5-1 thrashing at the hands of Sevilla last Tuesday. Vicente Moreno’s side are winless in the new campaign, losing five of their seven games.

With two points, Almeria are languishing at the bottom of the points table, two points and a placae below Granada.

Meanwhile, Granada are coming off a 1-1 draw with Real Betis at the Nuevo Estadio de Los Carmenes. Paco Lopez’s side are winless in four games, losing three, since a 3-2 win over Mallorca on August 26.

Like Almeira, Granada’s sloppy start to the season has been owing to their struggles at the defensive end, with both teams having conceded 18 goals.
