Alaves take on the visitors Malaga at “Mendizorrotza” in the round 17 of the Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played in Vitoria-Gasteiz on Thursday, December 21st.
In this season Alaves do not look as a tough opponent nearly to the all clubs which are performing in the Spanish elite division as “Babazorros” score goals very seldom. At the moment the team settles on the 18th place in the LaLiga standings with 12 points gained after 16 encounters played. It is clear that Alaves are preliminary the home side: the club deserved two victories over Las Palmas 2:0 and Espanyol 1:0 together with 1:2 loss to Eibar in the latest battles conducted in front of its supporters.

In their turn, Malaga show disastrous play in defense in this season, having conceded 28 goals already while managed to score just 13 goals. The club is currently sitting on the 19th position in the elite division table with 11 points collected after 15 clashes conducted. In their recent away games “Boquerones” earned 2:0 win over Real Sociedad alongside with two defeats from Real Madrid 2:3 and Villarreal 0:2.
Alaves have failed to beat Malaga across three consecutive head-to-heads conducted at the home turf. Both rivals do not belong to the high scoring teams in this season, thus, not many goals will be combined in the upcoming battle as well.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.0 scored goals.
