Prediction Mirandés vs Real Zaragoza 2025/2026 – Betting Tips for La Liga 2 on 26/09/2025

Preview: Mendizorroza hosts an intriguing La Liga 2 clash

The Estadio de Mendizorroza will host Mirandés and Real Zaragoza on 26 September in a fixture that promises a tight, tactical encounter more than a goal-fest. Mirandés come into the game occupying 14th place with seven points from six matches, while a beleaguered Real Zaragoza sit much lower in the table on just three points. The numbers paint a clear story: Mirandés have been a mixed bag but carry a small statistical edge at home, whereas Zaragoza have struggled to turn territory and shots into goals this season.

Mirandés have collected two wins, one draw and three defeats so far in the campaign, finding the net eight times while conceding ten. Their most recent outing ended in a 1-1 draw away to FC Andorra, a match in which Igor Nikic stood out with the best rating for his side. Mirandés’ home record shows they can be competitive on familiar turf, and bookmakers have them marginal favorites with a 2.55 quote, implying market confidence in a home victory.

Real Zaragoza arrive with worrying trends. They remain without a league win after six rounds, with three draws and three losses, and have only scored three goals while shipping seven. Their most recent defeat, a 1-0 reverse at Ceuta, highlighted a worrying inability to find finishing touches despite decent activity in the final third across the campaign. Francho Serrano earned the best rating for Zaragoza in that match, but individual flashes have not translated into consistent team returns.

Tactical expectations and key statistical clues

While Zaragoza rank higher in attacking volume — notably outperforming Mirandés for total shots and attacking actions — their output does not match their input. The away side averages far more attacks and dangerous possessions but has failed to convert those opportunities into goals, reflected in a low goals-scored figure. Mirandés, by contrast, manage more efficient finishing in bursts and have been steadier defensively at Mendizorroza than Zaragoza have been away from home.

The history between the sides is recent and competitive; the last meeting earlier this year ended 1-0 in Zaragoza’s favor, a reminder that marginal differences can decide this fixture. Yet current form and league position suggest Mirandés have momentum on their side, and the market slightly favors the hosts.

Betting suggestion

Backing Mirandés to win (1) in the 1X2 market is the preferred option here. The home side’s higher points tally, the confidence of a Mendizorroza fixture, and Zaragoza’s troubling inability to turn attacks into goals combine to make the home victory the most plausible outcome. With the bookmakers offering about 2.55 on the home win, that selection provides value against a drying-up away threat and a likely low-to-medium scoring game.
