Málaga form and stats
Málaga have performed here at Estadio La Rosaleda this season with 5 wins from 7 La Liga 2 matches. Some points have been lost, as they have drawn 2 games and lost 0. Hopes of three in a row are alive for Málaga after consecutive victories at their own ground.
The fans are hoping that Málaga will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-3 away loss in the La Liga 2 game against FC Cartagena (placed 9th). The attacker Paulino De la Fuente won the honour of being "man of the match" for Málaga with the rating of 6.95/10. Fuente hit two key passes, dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times and had 23 successful passes (of 27 total).
Before that, Málaga had a home game versus Real Sociedad II which ended with a victory 2-1.This is expected to be a close game, with Málaga perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Málaga as a small favourite), we find eleven games. Málaga has won three of these, drawn five and lost three.
The Málaga fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 8 in 7 matches.
