UD Las Palmas vs Real Zaragoza - 14/01/2020
3866
On Tuesday night, two teams who are hoping for a top-six finish in the Spanish Segunda meet at the Estadio de Gran Canaria, as Las Palmas host Real Zaragoza.
The home side are currently sixth-place in the Spanish second tier, just a point clear of seventh place Elche in the race to secure a promotion play-off berth this season. However, they are also just six points adrift of the automatic promotion spots.
The team from the Canary Islands head into this potentially crucial clash on a six-game unbeaten run, including four wins and two draws. They have drawn their last two matches in the Spanish second tier, last time out drawing 0-0 against Fuenlabrada.
Although the home sides recent matches in the Spanish top-flight have not always been high-scoring, both teams have scored in six of their last eight Segunda matches.
Las Palmas have a decent recent home record in the Segunda, as they have won five of their last eight matches at the Estadio de Gran Canaria. They are also undefeated in four league games on home soil.
Real Zaragoza are three points ahead of Tuesday nights opponents and just three points off the automatic promotion spots.
Victor Fernandez’s team are in the midst of a decent run of form in the Segunda, having won four of their last six league matches, including last time out in a 2-0 win over Sporting Gijon. The victory over Gijon saw Zaragoza score at least two goals for the fourth time in five league outings.
Despite their relatively lofty position in the Segunda table, Zaragoza’s recent away record is highly inconsistent, as the visitors have won just two of their last six away games in the second tier.
Forebet predicts that this potentially vital game will finish in a high-scoring and entertaining draw.
