Malaga take on the visitors Espanyol at “La Rosaleda” in the matchday 18 of the Spanish LaLiga. The game will be played on Monday, January 8th.
Malaga hold the relegation battle in this season. The team won two out of eight latest home clashes with four defeats gained in them. The club’s attack is not in its best form now as it has scored only nine goals while its defense doesn’t impress as well, having conceded 14 goals. If Malaga want to stay with the LaLiga for the next season, the side must undergo certain changes. In the recent encounters conducted at “La Rosaleda” “Boquerones” have failed 0:2 against Betis, earned 0:0 draw vs. Levante and broke Deportivo La Coruna 3:2.

Espanyol are currently sitting on the 15th position in the elite division standings, having got four defeats alongside and four draws with not a single triumph at away fields. The club’s offense demonstrates an extremely weak shape at this moment as it has scored only five goals so far, however, its defense is also doing not so well either, having conceded 15 goals already. Espanyol recorded 2:2 draw against Las Palmas, 1:3 loss to Eibar and 0:1 defeat from Alaves in the latest battles conducted on the road.
It is difficult to define the favourite of the forthcoming game as both rivals perform approximately on the same level and moreover, both of them need points badly. The current competitive form of the sides is far from the ideal one, thus, not many goals will be combined by the opponents on Monday.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.0 scored goals.
