Malaga take on the visitors Alaves in the round 27 match of Spanish LaLiga. The game will be played on Saturday, March 11th at Estadio La Rosaleda (Málaga).
Malaga followed their 2-1 win over Las Palmas in February with three defeats in a row, losing to Eibar, 0-3, Betis, 1-2, and Athletic Bilbao, 0-1. The team continues its free fall to the bottom of the LaLiga and now they are 15th with only 26 points gained. However, several teams in Primera are even more hopeless and it allows the Anchovies to have seven-point handicap before the relegation zone. Malaga have gained 20 points in 12 matches with positive 20-17 aggregate goal difference. We should also note that the teal lost three out of last four home fixtures.

Alaves can be happy with their season after a long absence in elite division. The team avoid defeat in clash against one of the leaders Sevilla last weekend, taking 1-1 draw. The visiting side is now 11th in the standings with 34 points gained in 26 matches and their place for the next season in top division is almost guaranteed. Alaves show quite nice results in matches on the road, gaining 18 points in 13 matches with 14-14 aggregate goal difference. The team scored goals regularly and allow quite number of goals as well.
Malaga won four out of their last four matches against Alaves, but drew their reverse fixture this season, 1-1. We should expect the visiting side to offer a battle to struggling hosts, who don’t look competitive at the moment.
Prediction for the match: Alaves to win with 0.5 Asian handicap.
