[edit] Stadium
Albacete Balompié play their home matches at the Estadio Carlos Belmonte. It has an all-seated capacity of 17,300. Originally built in 1960, the stadium has undergone two major redevelopments, the last being in 1998.
[edit] History
Albacete were relegated from the Spanish top division in the 2004/05 season, despite avoiding that fate in the previous season. As a result, the club was always a likely one to go down, but finishing rock bottom of the league table with just six wins recorded all season meant that Albacete's 2004/05 season was a complete disaster.
