Malaga take on the visitors Numancia at the Estadio La Rosaleda in the 11th tour of the Segunda Division. The match will be played in the eponymous city Malaga on Monday, October 29th.
Malaga are the leader of the Segunda Division right now. However, they lost to Elche on the away field last tour. Despite of that failure the Boquerones have won all of their home games so far this season. They have had five matches in front of their home crowd and have won exactly five of them conceding only one goal overall. The playing style of Malaga has been pretty pragmatic this season. The team of Juan Muniz has been showing solid performances in their defense and has conceded only six goals in ten matches they have already had in the league. On the other hand, they have been struggling to score and have done that only twelve times so far in the Segunda Division. If the Albicelestes continue to play safe in the defense though they will retain their first place in the league confidently. In their last three matches Malaga lost to Elche with a 0-2 score, beat Albacete with a 2-1 score and drew against Deportivo La Coruna with a 1-1 score.

Numancia lost their last tour fixture as well as Malaga, they were crushed by Las Palmas cleanly with a 0-3 score on the away field. Overall, the Numantinos have been unable to win on the away fields so far this Segunda Division season. They have managed to get three draws and two losses there in their five away games so far. Interestingly, all of their opponents have not been that strong at all in those matches. For example, Osasuna are fourteenth in the league at the moment. Lugo are fifteenth and Cordoba are on the last place. Numancia themselves are on the eleventh place in the Segunda Division. Last season they struggled to retain their spot in the league and were really close to be relegated from it. It`s worth noting that the head coach of team Jagoba Arrasate left the team last summer and that was a huge hit on the competitive ability of the Rojillos. Also, such players as Mila, Perez, Manu and Fernandez all left the team last summer. In their last three matches Numancia lost to Las Palmas with a 0-3 score, beat Zaragoza with a 1-0 score and Extremadura with the same 1-0 score.
Numancia have a pretty weak offensive line. They have scored only ten goals so far this Segunda Division season. Also, their defensive line has been struggling a lot. The Numantinos have already allowed thirteen goals in the league. Even Cadiz who have been an outsider in the league have managed to score against Numancia recently. Furthermore, Cordoba have also managed to score three goals against the team of Antz Lopez Garai. Thereby it is pretty hard to predict the amount of goals scored for the upcoming match. However, it could very well happen that there would be over 2.5 goals scored on Monday considering how badly the defensive line of Numancia has been looking lately. Malaga on the other hand have been getting points after points pretty confidently in the Segunda Division recently. It could also happen that there would be only one goal scored on Monday. However, if it really would it would be scored by the Boquerones for sure. The team of Juan Muniz has won all of their home games so far this Segunda Division season and the team of Antz Lopez Garai has won none of their away games so far. The Albicelestes have conceded only one goal overall in front of their home crowd. Numancia on the other hand were unable to even score in their last two away matches. The Numantinos are really far from their peak shape right now. Thereby Malaga will most likely get the victory over Numancia in front of their home crowd.
Prediction for the match: Malaga to win.
