Málaga form and stats

Málaga participated in Copa Del Rey the last season, where they reached the 1st round.

When playing at home in the La Liga 2, Málaga have managed 2 wins, 5 draws and suffered 3 defeats from 10 games. With seven home La Liga 2 games in a row without a win, the Málaga fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Sporting Gijon game long ago, can be stopped today. With three draws from their last three games overall it has been a case of neither great nor terrible for Málaga.

The home supporters saw a 1-1 draw versus Real Oviedo in the La Liga 2 last time out and are looking for a win here. Before that game, the 1-0 home victory against Real Oviedo (after extra-time).

Málaga aren't scoring a lot here at Estadio La Rosaleda in the league, with only 8 goals from 10 games. 11 goals have been conceded. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only -1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.

Granada form and stats

Granada was sent out of Copa Del Rey in the semi-finals last season, when Athletic Club turned out to be too strong.

Granada have only collected 7 points from their away games in the La Liga, after 2-1-5 (8 played). The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Granada have lost on their last two travels.

Impressive finishing from Luis Javier Suárez  secured the home win 2-0 against Osasuna in their previous game. A loss against Barcelona was the result prior to that, in a La Liga home game.

The schedule is very tough for Granada now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A La Liga game at Villarreal is waiting in only three days.

The attacking power of Granada when travelling is not overwhelming with 5 goals scored from 8 league matches away. For Granada, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only -1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: one - five - four (Málaga wins - draws - Granada wins). As for goals, one match ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), nine had two or less.
