Malaga on the other hand have six points to their credit after their two starting matches in the Segunda Division. The Boquerones beat Lugo with a 2-1 score in the first tour. Then, they beat Alcorcon with a 1-0 score in the second tour. The team of Juan Muniz is on the first place in the table at the moment. It is obvious that they want to come back to La Liga as quick as possible and don`t want to waste time in the Segunda Division. In their last three matches before the start of the season Malaga had drawn against Granada with a 0-0 score, had beaten Cordoba with a 1-0 score and had drawn against Mallorca with a 0-0 score.
It`s hard to tell about the favourite for the upcoming fixture because the new Segunda Division season has only started recently. However, it is likely that Malaga will be glad with the victory only because Almeria have not reached their peak shape yet. Furthermore, the Boquerones have a great experience of playing in the most prestigious Spanish football league and the Rojiblancos don`t. The only advantage for the team of Fran Fernandez in the lead-up to this match is the home crowd advantage for them but it is unlikely that it will be a crucial factor.
Prediction for the match: Malaga to win with 0 handicap.
