Two sides battling it out down at the bottom end of La Liga clash once more with Almeria at Cadiz, and Forebet is here for all the latest in analysis, data, trends and football predictions for this showdown in Spain.

Almeria continue to be the only winless side across Europe's top divisions, and they are consequently sitting with a terrible record of data after 26 games in La Liga.

This has now seen them lose 17 times, which although not the worst record in Europe’s top five leagues, is still a terrible run.

17 losses and no wins means they also come into this game with nine draws on the board, meaning all their points have come in this fashion.

This has also seen Almeria score 25 times in the goals analysis, but after letting in 54 goals at the same time, they are by far the worst defensive team in Spain.

In truth, with only nine points on the board for Almeria, the gap of 12 on getting out of the drop zone of La Liga is all but hanging on a miracle.

There are still 12 games left to play, meaning 36 points up for grabs, but with their winless form, there is no hope whatsoever in achieving this feat.

Rubi's men did famously take a 2-0 lead at the Santiago Bernabeu to the league leaders Real Madrid a few weeks back, but as has been part of their trends this season, they lost 3-2. On the other hand, they came from behind on two occasions against Atletico Madrid at home to seal a point.

They were even defeated by Barbastro of the Segunda Federación – Group 2, and losing to such a team in the Copa del Rey second round and being winless in La Liga makes Almeria's season perhaps the worst on record in Spanish top flight history.

As for Celta Vigo, they continue to hover just above the bottom three with a points difference of three on Cadiz in 18th. Oddly enough, despite conceding a significantly fewer set of goals, Celta Vigo have only scored three more goals than Almeria.

The club actually drew with Cadiz away from home last time out to keep this gap at three points, and with Barcelona and Getafe beating them before that, this means the only win has been over Osasuna.

From this analysis and data, Forebet’s football predictions points towards a draw and under 2.5 goals.
