Prediction: 1-1
Cartagena
Zaragoza and Cartagena square off against each other at Estadio La Romareda in the opening match of the La Liga 2 round 27. Los Blanquillos have been having their ups and downs of late, with the team sharing the spoils with Alcorcon, beating Sporting Gijon, while losing to Eibar. Zaragoza are eager to stay in the playoffs race and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at los Boquerones. Defender Carlos Nieto misses out with an Achilles injury, while midfielder Raul Guti has yet to overcome a knee problem.
Cartagena, on the other hand, have been in a fine form in recent weeks, with the team winning four of their last five league matches. Anyhow, the two sides seem to be evenly matched at the moment and we predict that they are going to share the spoils in Friday’s encounter. Experienced midfielder Mikel Rico continues to miss out with injury for the visiting team.
