Valencia face Real Zaragoza at the Pinatar Arena Football Center in a pre-season friendly fixture on Wednesday.

Valencia have been unbeaten in their pre-season campaign so far and will go into the game off the back of a 3-2 win against Cartagena. Jose Bordalas' side will look to continue their great run of form on Wednesday as they prepare for the 2021-22 season.

Real Zaragoza, on the other hand, have had mixed results in their pre-season campaign so far. However, Juan Ignacio Martinez's side will go into Wednesday's game off the back of a 2-0 win against Elche.

This will be Zaragoza's final friendly before the commencement of the 2021-22 season and they will hope to finish their pre-season campaign on a high.

Both sides will be looking to win the game on Wednesday, and that should make for an interesting fixture.


Valencia vs Real Zaragoza Head-to-Head

As expected, Valencia have dominated the recent head-to-head record between the two sides, winning three of their last five meetings, with Real Zaragoza only winning one.

Valencia demolished Real Zaragoza 4-1 the last time the two sides met back in 2017. Goals from Santi Mina, Robert Ibanez and Ruben Vezo were enough to secure all three points, while Jorge Pombo scored a consolation goal for Zaragoza.
