Zaragoza vs Sporting Gijon prediction 05.02.2024

• Competition: La Liga 2
• Date: Monday, 5th February 2024
• Kickoff: 19:30 UK / 20:30 CET
• Venue: La Romareda (Zaragoza)

Zaragoza are already 11 seasons in La Liga 2. They hope to return to the strongest Spanish league, but to get there, Julio Velazquez's team has to get better. Currently, Zaragoza are a mid-table team in La Liga 2, but the playoff zone are only five points ahead of them, so there is plenty of time to improve things. Zaragoza are on a run of five games without a loss but with only two wins and five draws. Last weekend, they played 0-0 on the road against Alcorcon. Zaragoza failed to win in that game, but another game without defeat will help maintain confidence ahead of the match versus Sporting Gijon. 

Sporting Gijon are part of La Liga 2 since 2017. Currently, they are in the playoff zone, but the second position, which will bring direct promotion, is only two points ahead. Sporting Gijon struggled lately as they won only one of the last eight matches in all competitions. In the previous game, they lost 2-1 at home against Ferrol. Sporting Gijon didn't impress in that match, but they were still close to winning one point. In the end, Ferrol's Sabin scored the game-winning goal in stoppage time and left Sporting Gijon empty-handed. 

Zaragoza vs Sporting Gijon pick: Zaragoza to win AH (0)

Zaragoza were solid at the home stadium lately. They have a 2-1-0 in the last three matches at La Romareda. On the other hand, Sporting Gijon have a 1-2-2 in the previous five road games. The game between Zaragoza and Sporting Gijon should be close, but Zaragoza should have an advantage at home.
