Sporting Gijon, Recent FormThe 3-2 away defeat to Racing Santander will not have sat easily with the Sporting Gijon squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. They achieved 57% possession in that match and had 21 strikes at goal, with 8 hitting the target, up against Racing Santander's tally of 20 efforts at goal, 7 of which were on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 7 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 4, and leading to valuable points being dropped. They've kept a clean sheet in 4 of their last 6 matches.
It has been a solid run of home form of late, having gone undefeated in 5 of their last 6 matches at home and clocking up 4 wins along the way.
Having scored 4 goals in his last 6 league games for Sporting Gijon, Gaspar Campos will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
Real Zaragoza, Recent FormAny Real Zaragoza pre-match expectations for their last outing were misplaced, after an unexpected 2-0 home defeat by Alcorcon. They came away from that fixture with a 64% share of the possession and clocked up 15 attempts on goal with 5 on target, in comparison to Alcorcon, who managed 11 attempts on goal, 2 of which were on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 5 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 6 and seen valuable points lost. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
This will be regarded as a poor run of form, with 3 defeats from their last 6 matches and just 2 victories.
On an individual basis, Víctor Mollejo will be looking to cause Sporting Gijon some problems having scored 2 goals in Real Zaragoza's last 6 away games in the league.
In the previous league meeting between these two sides, it was Sporting Gijon that came out on top with a 1-0 win.
When playing away from home in the league, Los Blanquillos have conceded at least one goal in each of their last 5 matches against Sporting. Rojiblancos have struggled to break down the Zaragoza defence in their past encounters having only managed to find the back of the net 2 times in their last 5 meetings.
Despite Pablo Insua (Cruciate ligament) being out for the rest of the season Sporting manager Miguel Ángel Ramírez will be pleased to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from ahead of this fixture.
There is only really one injury concern for the Zaragoza manager Fran Escribá ahead of this clash, with Quentin Lecoeuche (Broken collarbone) missing out, which gives Escribá a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
