Zaragoza take on the visitors Malaga in the round 16 match of Spanish LaLiga2. The match will be played on Saturday, November 19th at La Romareda (Zaragoza).
Zaragoza have not shown themselves to be anything special for a long time. The "Aragonese" are perceived by inertia as the master of cup opponents. Several times, including under Sergey Gurenko, it was possible to win the Copa del Rey... But the famous club lost its "registration" in La Liga quite a long time ago. And there is no way he can return to this level. Sometimes it was possible to get into the zone of relegation play-off matches, but there, in the end, relegation followed. Against this background, the last season, with 56 points and 10th overall place, was quite a good result. Suffice it to say that it is impossible to repeat such a thing. Zaragoza has only 4 victories and 16 points. True, in the last month there were victories over Villarreal-B and Tenerife, which prevents them from falling into the relegation zone.

Malaga looks almost hopeless. The "Anchovies" were recently considered as a kind of Spanish analogue of Manchester City and PSG. But here, the means of the owner from the Middle East made it possible to make only a one-time impulse, albeit a bright one, with a peak in the form of the quarterfinals of the Champions League. Abdullah Al Tana's ambitions and funds were not enough for a long time, and already in 2018, everything ended with his relegation from Primera, and from the last, 20th place. Initially, it was almost possible to return to La Liga back, "on the fly", but in the "regular" it turned out to win only the 3rd place, and the playoffs did not bring success. Further results only worsened, up to the "borderline" 18th place in the last championship. And now Malaga are at the bottom of the current table. Only 2 victories and a measly 10 points were taken. It should be noted that after 3 defeats in a row, they managed to get at least a draw on the field of Gijon Sporting.
Zaragoza have their own problems. But in 2021-2022, in the last 3 head-to-head matches, they did not lose to Malaga: an away win and a pair of draws. Malaga are the club with which you need to take the maximum. And let's believe that Zaragoza will be able to achieve this on its own field.
Prediction for the match: Zaragoza to win.
