Real Zaragoza
- Real Zaragoza have won two and lost one of their last three home LaLiga 2 games.
- The hosts are managed by Ruben Selles, who has led Los Blanquillos to a turnaround in recent weeks with his high-tempo, vertical game.
- Zaragoza have won three, drawn one and lost once in their last five matches in all competitions, although there has been a slight uptick in form at the Ibercaja Stadium recently with two wins and a defeat in their last three, making the Real Zaragoza vs Cadiz prediction particularly interesting for this encounter.
Cadiz
- Cadiz have won only one of their last five LaLiga 2 matches, losing four of the last five.
- Gaizka Garitano’s 4-2-3-1 system focuses on getting his side compact and disciplined in their mid-block pressing and organised counter-attacks that aim to exploit the space left behind by teams that commit too many players forward.
Head-to-Head
Both of the head-to-head meetings between these clubs in Spain’s second division have seen Zaragoza win once and the other end in a draw, with the most recent clash at this venue a 0-0 draw .
Key Players
- Iuri Tabatadze has provided a reliable threat on the break up front with four goals in 14 appearances in the second division this season, but Los Albirrojos have lost four of their last five and two in a row in league and cup.
- Daniel Gomez has scored three times in 13 appearances in Spain’s second tier this term and looks a likely goal threat for Zaragoza.
