**Granada are rolling, and Albacete are barely standing** — the hosts have won three of their last five while visitors have mustered just one draw in the same stretch. This looks like a mismatch waiting to happen. 📊

Granada are the clear favorites here. They've posted back-to-back wins at home (3-1 vs Córdoba, 2-0 vs Mallorca) and own a **6-4 edge in the head-to-head**. Albacete, meanwhile, are limping in with four losses in five and a depleted squad missing four players to injury — including M. El Haddadi, P. Sánchez, V. San Bartolome, and V. Valverde.

Key storylines:

- **Granada's attacking spark** has been real with J. M. Arnáiz and K. Bamba linking well in the final third
- **Albacete's injury crisis** leaves them stretched thin; even D. Mariño will have work to do in goal
- **Los Carmenes is a fortress** — Granada's home form should seal this one

Expected lineups:

- **Granada**: R. Lizoain, B. Diallo, M. L. Maroto, O. N. Oppong, S. Lopez, G. Gumbau, R. Alcaraz, P. Alemañ, K. Bamba, J. M. Arnáiz, J. Pascual
- **Albacete Balompié**: D. Mariño, L. López, F. Gámez, C. Neva, L. Aguado, S. Ortuño, J. Corpas, A. Pacheco, R. González, A. Rubio, S. Obeng

Prediction:

**Granada 3-0 Albacete Balompié** — home advantage, form, and sheer firepower should be too much for a wounded Albacete side. 🎯
