Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
There will be fireworks when Zaragoza and Malaga, the two old rivals, lock horns at Estadio La Romareda on Sunday evening. Los Blanquillos aim to climb to automatic promotion berth and you should know that they are eyeing their fourth home win of the process. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team, but both Mario Soberon and Dani Tasende remain in the recovery room.
Los Boquerones, on the other hand, are brimming with confidence following back-to-back wins over Eibar and Cartagena. The Andalusians aim to move closer to the playoffs places, but seeing that they have yet to record a win on the road this term, we are tempted to bet on the home team. In their last meeting at “Romareda” the two sides played out a 1-1 draw, but home win should be considered this time out. Forward Haitam Abaida misses out with injury for the away team.
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.
The venue opened on September 8, 1957 has the capacity of 33,608 people. Los Blanquillos wear white shirts and blue shorts when playing on home soil, while yellow is the dominant colour of their away kit. Zaragoza did well to win the la liga trophy in the 1977/78 season, with the team finishing the campaign four points clear of second-place Recreativo de Huelva.
Speaking of the club’s European success, Zaragoza clinched the UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup in the 1994/95 season as they defeated 2-1 in the title game. 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. Huesca are considered the club’s main rivals.
