Eibar vs Real Zaragoza prediction, preview, team news and more | Segunda Division 2021-22

Eibar host Real Zaragoza at the Municipal de Ipurua in the Spanish Segunda Division on Saturday, with both sides having contrasting seasons so far.

Eibar are currently top of the league, one point ahead of Almeria in second. Gaizka Garitano's side have faltered of late, winning only two of their last five games. They will look to consolidate their place at the top of the table with a win against Real Zaragoza on Saturday.

Real Zaragoza, on the other hand, are currently 12th in the table, 15 points above the relegation zone, with five games left to play. Juan Ignacio Martinez should be confident of keeping his side up and Zaragoza could well still make a run to finish in the playoff spots. They will hope to climb up the table with a win against Eibar on Saturday.

Both sides want to win the game for different reasons and that should make for a well-contested matchup.
