Post-match recovery as important as preparing for game

UD Almería are now immersed in a period of the season that is hectic because after playing in Zaragoza, this Thursday they host Albacete Balompié (KO 7pm Spanish Time) and next Sunday they visit SD Huesca (KO 6:30pm Spanish Time). In addition, next week they will have to combine LaLiga with the Spanish Cup first against UD San ​​Sebastián de los Reyes on Wednesday, 30th October on the Madrid-based team's pitch. 

 

As a result, preparing for the matches that have to be faced is as important as recovering the players due to the fatigue accumulation over matches, especially taking into account that the squad has 19 members available due to the absences of Lucas Robertone, who underwent surgery shoulder dislocation. There are several UD Almería 'B' footballers who regularly train with the first-team, such as goalkeeper Bruno Iribarne, centre-back Paco Sanz, midfielder Gui Guedes, winger Safi (this youth) and striker Rachad.

 

After taking a slight break on Monday after the victory at La Romareda Stadium, UD Almería have resumed training thinking about Albacete Balompié, who visit the UD Almería Stadium this Thursday. The session, held behind closed doors at the training base, had a part with tactics for the imminent league event, but there has also been recovery for the players who are getting more game minutes in their legs. This Wednesday afternoon, back to activity, this time also behind closed doors, but now in the Stadium that has new grass. 

 

Radovanovic and Rachad are back once they have served their one-game bans, while Maximiano, who didn't feature in Zaragoza, continues his way back to full recovery.
