Ambition test against Zaragoza

Elche, sixth, look for the victory against the Aragonese team, third, to consolidate definitively in the fight for promotion. Vctor is the only low and Nino to be honored in the prolegmen of the game for his scorer record.

Elche and Real Zaragoza dispute this Saturday a huge match in which both teams, installed in a positive dynamic, will look for the three points at stake to consolidate as candidates for promotion.

Pacheta's speech has not changed despite the fact that Elche already sees the 50-point border, figure that marks the permanence, on the horizon. The technician ensures that he continues to look “down”, but also admits that the sensations transmitted by his team cause his foundations to be removed. “I also get excited,” he said in reference to the possible fight for promotion. “Winning Zaragoza will trigger everything,” added the burgals, aware that if Elche is able to add all three points, the objective should be to aim at the clouds.

Whatever the result, Elche will keep its hopes intact, but the party, unlike others, has a special significance for the entity of the rival and the time of the season. After tying at the leader's house and winning the second in his stadium, a new blow against another of the candidates will finally take Elche's cap off.

It is not a serious injury, but the coach does not want to take risks. Pacheta s can have the rest of the signings, although the coach has insisted that they should wait to win their chance at the good level that the headlines are showing. Included Jonathas of Jess, the great bet of the entity in the market.
