ℹ️ Team News: Leganés

The Leganés manager Borja Jiménez will be happy not to have any fitness concerns to speak of coming into this clash with a fully injury-free squad available to select from.

In our view, Leganés should kick off with a 4-4-2 system for this game, handing starts to Diego Conde, Allan Nyom, Jorge Sáenz, Sergio González, Enric Franquesa, Juan Cruz, Darko Brasanac, Yvan Neyou, F. Portillo Soler, Daniel Raba and Diego Garcia.

📰 Team News: Real Zaragoza

Real Zaragoza manager Víctor Fernández has multiple availability issues to deal with. Andrés Borge (Torn knee ligaments), Francho Serrano (Back injury) and Raúl Guti (Partial patellar tendon tear) won’t be making appearances.

It’s our belief that Blanquillos seem likely to elect for a 4-2-3-1 system, starting the game with Edgar Badia, Akim Zedadka, Alejandro Frances, Lluis Lopez, Quentin Lecoeuche, Toni Moya, Marc Aguado, Fran Gámez, Maikel Mesa, Iván Azón and Adrián Liso.

⚡ Prediction

In this match, Real Zaragoza have the ability to break down this Leganés lineup, but it might not quite be as many as they will have scored against them.

We are anticipating a narrow 2-1 advantage for Leganés by the conclusion of the game. There shouldn’t be much in it, either way.
