National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Real Zaragoza or Mallorca that keep their silverware dream alive.

Mallorca could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a La Liga game only two sleeps ago.

It's quite the trip for Mallorca when visiting Real Zaragoza as the cities are 900 kilometers apart.

Real Zaragoza form and stats

Real Zaragoza was eliminated in the 3rd round last season in the Copa Del Rey.

Real Zaragoza have played 12 La Liga 2 games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 6-3-3 (wins-draws-losses). Two home wins in a row for Real Zaragoza bring valid hopes of a third.

Happy days for Real Zaragoza in their previous game, a La Liga 2 match away at Las Palmas that ended with a 1-0 victory. A strong away win before that one, visiting Gimnastic Tarragona and winning 3-1.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Real Zaragoza have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 16 games) they have won 8 times, drawn 4 and lost 4.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Numancia are coming to town in four days.

Real Zaragoza have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at La Romareda with 19 goals in 12 league matches. From these home matches, Real Zaragoza have conceded only 11 goals.

Mallorca form and stats

Mallorca was sent out of Copa Del Rey in the 16th finals last season, when Real Valladolid turned out to be too strong.

There's been little loot from Mallorca's travels as they have only collected 1 point from 9 away games in the La Liga. Mallorca only have 0 wins to counter their 8 defeats and 1 draw. The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Mallorca have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone 14 consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Malaga game.

The Mallorca goalkeeper Fabricio Martin Agosto Ramirez is collecting clean sheets like a laundry worker. It's been 182 league minutes without conceding a goal, and counting.

Mallorca are travelling after their nice 4-1 home win in the La Liga against Valencia. Before that one, a nice away victory 1-0 at Zamora.

We have checked recent matches where Mallorca have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those nine games were W1-D2-L6.

The visitors have scored 7 goals from 9 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Mallorca have conceded 22 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Real Zaragoza 4 wins, 4 draws and Mallorca 2 victories. As for goals, 6 matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), 4 games had two or less.
