Almería visits the Metropolitan this afternoon (6:30 p.m.) in the first game of the three that it has in the Community of Madrid in the second half of April. After hosting Athletic next Saturday (4:15 p.m.), the Almeria players will play on Wednesday 26 (7:30 p.m.) at the Coliseum and three days later (6:30 p.m.), at the Bernabéu. Up to three chances to achieve a double challenge: getting the first victory of the season away from home and doing it in an autonomous community where they have never won in the First Division. Today he will look for him in a Metropolitan in which he already played in November 2018, in the Second Division, against Rayo Majadahonda (2-0), repeating in September 2020 in a friendly with victory (4-1) for Simeone’s men.
The Indalic set, which chains twenty consecutive trips in the highest category without winningwith just four draws, has played 21 elite games in Madrid and has only taken a couple of equalizers in the Calderón (September 2009 and October 2010, with three goals from Piatti) and three at the Coliseumwhere he consummated his relegation in 2011.
Atlético, Real Madrid and Getafe (the azulones have not beaten them either in the Second Division) have always coincided with Almería in the First Division, while they have played against Rayo on three occasions, losing the Almeria team on all of them. The dynamics could not be more negative, since the Indalic picture has remained without scoring in their last six matches played in the Community of Madrid in the highest category.
In total, Almería has played 60 official matches in the Madrid community, in First, Second, Copa del Rey and promotion to the silver category, with a balance of six wins, 23 draws and 31 losses. Leganés, Alcorcón, Fuenlabrada, Real Madrid Castilla and Atlético de Madrid B complete the list of teams.
