Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Zaragoza will look to kick off their La Liga 2 campaign in fashion when they welcome Villarreal B at their Estadio La Romareda on Saturday evening. Los Blanquillos finished the last season in 13th position and, no doubt, they will give 100% to make it to the playoffs this time out. The club chiefs have signed permanent deals with the likes of Sinan Bakis, Gaetan Poussin, Toni Moya, Sergi Enrich, Maikel Mesa, Victor Mollejo, and Quentin Lecoeuche in the summer transfer window and it is no wonder the bookies see them as favourites to win Saturday’s clash.
The Yellow Submarine B, on the other hand, were involved in some high-scoring games in preseason, which is probably the main reason why we are going to bet on over 2.5 goals. A man to watch in the visiting team will be new signing Andres Ferrari, who is expected to make immediate impact. In their last meeting in La Liga 2 Zaragoza defeated Villarreal B 3-2.
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.
