The visiting Huesca side should be favourites in this visit to Malaga, as the away team holds a 12 point advantage from their 31 league games this season.
Málaga and Huesca should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 900 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.
Málaga form and stats
5-7-3 (win-draw-lost) are the La Liga 2 numbers at home for Málaga so far this season.
Málaga's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-1 versus Real Zaragoza (placed 2nd). Preceding that game was the away draw at Las Palmas that finished 1-1.
Málaga has scored 18 league goals at home this season, in 15 matches. From these home matches, Málaga have conceded only 14 goals.
Huesca form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Huesca so far with only 12 points returning home. The records show 3-3-9 (win-draw-lose). Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Huesca's last three away games as they have all been lost.
The supporters enjoyed Huesca's previous game versus Fuenlabrada (placed 13th), a La Liga 2 2-0 win played at home. Ahead of that game was the 2-2 draw at home against Extremadura UD.
The attacking power of Huesca when travelling is not overwhelming with 11 goals scored from 15 league matches away. As opposed to that, Huesca have seen the ball go into their own net 19 times on the road.
