Malaga hosts Deportivo La Coruna in the second leg of the Spanish La Liga2 promotion playoffs semifinals. The match will be played on Saturday, June 15th at Estadio La Rosaleda (Málaga)
On one hand, it seems that Malaga was beaten in the first leg of the promotion playoffs semifinals with a quite decent score (4:2). On the other hand, the team may well score Deportivo twice at home. If it could do it away, why can’t it repeat it at home? There Malaga scored 28 goals of all 51 in the championship. Of course, it will be difficult to reach this aim, but it is possible.

Deportivo, as already noted above, gained a victory with a difference of 2 goals. A fairly solid handicap for such an experienced team that played in LaLiga last season, and most likely, it will return there after playoff matches. The team from La Coruna is at the final’s door, and there is only one step left.
There is no way out for Malaga. The team should win back 2 goals, which means it has to go forward from the first minutes of the match. And Malaga will probably do it. It doesn’t matter how to lose, with a current 4-2 score or with 7-2. There will be only one outcome – no promotion to LaLiga. But if Malaga attacks, it will have at least a chance to win back. And the hosts will be rewarded for their persistence. I can’t say that Deportivo is very weak in defense; nevertheless, it conceded 2 goals in the first match and 32 goals in the championship. It is likely that it will allow at least one in the upcoming game.
However, Deportivo is a master of counterattacks. The team used such tactics when it played in Primera and every so often in Segunda. And it will surely be able to use free zones in the defense of Malaga, which will appear in the course of the match all over again. Therefore, Deportivo is also likely to score.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score - yes
