Dreamland Gran Canaria will face Casademont Zaragoza this Saturday in a match of great moral and classificatory importance for both teams, with the home side looking for a victory to gain some breathing room in the competition.

The Gran Canarian team, under the guidance of Néstor ‘Che’ García in his home debut, aims to end its negative run of results. A win in this game would be a significant boost against a direct rival at the bottom of the table.
With a 7-19 record, 'Granca' will try to return to winning ways after a narrow 88-86 defeat against Kosner Baskonia last week. Meanwhile, Casademont Zaragoza arrives with high spirits after beating Hiopos Lleida 107-91 in Zaragoza, giving them an 8-19 record.
In the first-round match, played last January at the Príncipe Felipe, Casademont Zaragoza won 95-84. After an even first half (43-41), a 27-16 run in the third quarter was decisive for the Aragonese team.
Both teams face this final stretch of the season with the need to secure victories. Casademont Zaragoza boasts standout players in the Liga Endesa, such as Santi Yusta, the third-highest scorer in the competition with 16.8 points per game, and center Bojan Dubljevic, who averages 6.09 rebounds per game.
