Ferrol take on the visitors Zaragoza in the round 7 match of Spanish LaLiga2. The match will be played on Monday, September 25th at Estadio Municipal da Malata (Ferrol).
Racing Ferrol have finally returned to a relatively high level. The Green Devils celebrated their centenary in 2019. However, during all this time, the representatives of La Coruña have never managed to make it to La Liga. Even in 1940, they achieved second place in the Segunda División but still didn't ascend to La Liga. Furthermore, the team last appeared in the second division in the 2007/2008 season, finishing 19th and facing another relegation. It was only last season that they managed to win promotion back to Segunda División. At this level, they are doing quite well, starting with victories against Elche and Sporting Gijón, with a 1-1 draw against Oviedo between these successes. However, they later shared points with Alcorcón and Villarreal B and suffered a 0-2 loss to Eibar.

The Aragonese are rightfully considered not a football giant but a respected and authoritative team that has won the Spanish Cup six times, including in 2004, and the UEFA Cup in 1995. Moreover, since the mid-1950s, they have almost consistently played in La Liga. However, this streak ended with relegation in 2013. It had happened before, but they immediately returned to the top division. This time, they only reached the playoffs three times, including finishing third twice, but they never made it back. Furthermore, in 2020, the team finished in the top 10 of the final league table, but in the spring, they slipped to 13th place. Therefore, their current surge is quite unexpected. Fran Escribá's squad started with five consecutive victories and only ended in a draw at home against Racing in the last round.
The teams played just over two decades ago, in the 2002/2003 season in the Segunda División. Back then, Zaragoza was slightly stronger: 2-2 at home and 2-1 away. Judging by the odds, this is a three-outcome match. We recommend betting on a victory for the more experienced guests, with a handicap of 0.
Prediction for the match: Zaragoza to win with 0.0 handicap.
