Albacete vs Zaragoza Prediction & Betting tips
Some want to get out of La Liga 2 and hope for a direct ascent to the upper house of Spanish football. The others are trembling about being allowed to stay inside. Two game days before the end of the season, Albacete and Zaragoza are in dire need of a three-way.
Saragossa are fourth in the table, missing two points in second place, while Albacete is one point behind the saving bank. In the run-up to the game between Albacete and Zaragoza, the odds of the bookmakers are largely balanced, as the odds comparison on a betting basis shows.
At Albacete against Zaragoza, our forecast is definitely in the direction of the guests from the northeast of Spain, who have so far gained 16 points in league operations. However, Zaragoza has lost five of the last seven league games and goes into the match at Estadio Carlos Belmonte with little momentum, where Alba stands with her back to the wall and needs points to stay in the league.
Albacete:
In the 1990s, Albacete Balompié played in La Liga for several years. Last summer there was almost a comeback. Fourth in the final table, Alba reached the promotion playoffs, but failed there due to Mallorca.
Another year had to be spent in La Liga 2. However, it was a year in which the association, in which none other than Andrés Iniesta is the main shareholder, had absolutely nothing to do with the promotion.
In fact, after the last relegation from La Liga 2 in 2011, there is now an acute danger of going into third class. After the recent 0: 2 at Elche CF, Alba even slipped to 20th place.
The away defeat was the first loss after seven games in a row in which Lucas Alcaraz’s team remained undefeated. However, five of these seven games ended in a draw, which is why a total of eleven of the 30 possible counters have been recorded since the restart.
At the moment that would be too little to remain in the second-highest Spanish league, because one point is missing on the first non-relegation zone, which Numancia occupies. It is all the more likely that the recently very defensive club, which has only conceded five goals in the last six games, is now going a bit more aggressively, which favors our tip for more than 2.5 goals against Albacete against Zaragoza.
It is clear that Alba has to score. In this respect, there is hope for this home game, since only seven of the 20 league games have been lost at home.
Zaragoza:
Real Zaragoza has had 58 seasons in La Liga so far and is hoping to return to Spanish football’s upper house after seven years after a mixed preseason, which ended in La Liga 2 with a disappointing 15th place in the final table.
The whites (Spanish: Blanquillos) have at least the promotion playoffs almost certain. Fourth, the lead in seventh place is five points two games before the end of the season. However, because everything looked like direct ascent over long stretches of the season, you are currently not satisfied with this in northeastern Spain.
After all, only one of the four teams from the promotion delegation can get the third promotion place, which is why it would be a lot safer to move into second place, which Zaragoza just lost to Huesca in the course of an unprecedented negative series.
For five league games, the Blanquillos have been waiting for another three and scored only one out of 15 possible points in La Liga 2.
Before the Aragon team is labeled a big loser in the restart, there are two games left in which Víctor Fernández’s team could potentially score six more points.
With Albacete against Zaragoza, the odds certainly do not preclude success at the Estadio Carlos Belmonte. After all, the Blanquillos occupy first place in the away table of La Liga 2. It is all the more important to end the negative series with an exclamation mark.
