Mired in a bit of a skid, Zaragoza look to move back up the La Liga table on Sunday when they play host to Osasuna.
Zaragoza had to settle for a 1-1 draw against lowly Málaga last weekend, but they have performed admirably at home with 10 points from five games at La Romareda this season.
Osasuna, meanwhile, were crushed 3-1 by Valencia at home last weekend, and they now sit just 12th in the table. The Navarrans have lost their last two games, and have just one win away from home on the year.
Zaragoza could be without Ewerthon as he struggles to be fit in time for kickoff, and Javier Arizmendi has been ruled out for the game by manager Marcelino García Toral.
For Osasuna manager José Antonio Camacho, defender Nacho Monreal is ruled out due to injury , and three players - Walter Pandiani, Miguel Flaño and captain Francisco Puñal - are suspended for the match. French midfielder Ludovic Delporte will also miss out for the visitors.
This will be another of many close encounters on Sunday as the two sides are evenly matched. The absences for Osasuna, though, could be their downfall in this one. Look for Zaragoza to come out on top.
