2438
On Friday night, Real Zaragoza host Sporting Gijon in the Spanish Segunda, as the visitors look for a victory to keep their slim hopes of a play-off spot alive.
Real Zaragoza are 14th place in the Spanish second tier, just six points clear of the relegation zone. Despite their relatively lowly position in the table, Zaragoza have been in decent form of late, winning three of their last four league outings, including last time out when the home side won 3-0 at Extremadura.
A key to Zaragoza’s recent good results has been their improved defensive record in the Segunda, having kept clean sheets in three of their last four league outings.
The home sides recent home record in the Segunda is inconsistent, as they have won just three of their last seven home matches in the league. Their recent matches on home soil in the Segunda have been relatively low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in four of their last five league home outings.
Sporting Gijon are tenth place in the Segunda, still with an outside chance of finishing in the promotion play-offs this season. The visitors have failed to win in four Segunda matches, which leaves Gijon seven points adrift of the play-off spots.
The visitors’ recent Segunda matches have been low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in seven of their last eight outings.
Sporting Gijon’s away record in the Segunda has been inconsistent of late, as they have won just once in their last four league matches on their travels.
The visitor’s away matches in the Segunda have been low-scoring of late, with under 2.5 goals scored in three of their last four matches.
Forebet predicts that this clash will finish in a low-scoring clash, which could end the visitor’s slim hopes of a top-six finish.
