Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Alcorcon and Zaragoza go head to head at Estadio Municipal de Santo Domingo in a highly-anticipated Segunda Division game. Alcorcon are stuck at the bottom of the table with three defeats in the first three games of the season, and, no doubt, they are eager to give fans something to cheer about. Head coach Anquela could opt to make changes to the starting XI, with both Gomez and Cordoba pushing for a start. Anyhow, the hosts are likely to go for a win in Sunday’s clash.
Los Blanquillos, on the other hand, aim to make amends for back-to-back defeats to the likes of Real Valladolid and Cartagena. Since Zaragoza are eager to record their first win of the season as well, we are tempted to put our money on both teams to score. Experienced midfielder Adrian could be handed his first start of the season against Alcorcon.
Highlighted Player (Richard Boateng):
Born in Accra, Ghana on July 10, 1992, Richard Boateng is a midfielder who plays for Alcorcon in Segunda Division. Boateng is a product of Liberty Babies football academy, with the Ghanaian starting his senior career at Liberty Professionals. In 2010 he moved to Spain, signing a deal with Granada.
During his spell with the Andalusian outfit, he mainly played for Granada B, but he spent a couple of years at loan at Cadiz B and San Roque as well. Richard Boateng made only one appearance for the Granada senior team in the league.
The Ghana international played for the likes of Aris Limassol, Extremadura, Melilla, and Oviedo as well before joining Alcorcon in 2019. His primary position is central midfielder, but he is used as an attacking midfielder as well. His preferred foot is right, and his contract with Alcorcon should expire in June 2021.
Highlighted Team (Zaragoza):
Based in the autonomous community of Aragon, Zaragoza is a Spanish football club that plays in Segunda Division. The club was founded on March 18, 1932 and it plays their home matches at the legendary La Romareda stadium.

Fabio Coentrao, Pablo Aimar, Roberto Ayala, Diego Milito, Gabriel Milito, Cafu, and David Villa are the most notable footballers who played for the club in the past.
