Tenerife hosts Malaga in round 33 of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Monday, June 15th at Estadio Heliodoro Rodríguez López (Santa Cruz de Tenerife)
After the end of the quarantine, Tenerife limply lost to Fuenlanrada (0:1), having delivered only one shot on target for the entire match. However, it possessed the ball most of the time. This precedent clearly demonstrates the functional and physical unpreparedness of Barai’s men for intense games after a 2-month break. However, Tenerife was not strong on the road before the suspension of the championship. The home stadium is the main source of points for Tenerife, but now the arena is empty, which will certainly affect the results. Haven broken away from the relegation zone and having lost the chance to compete for the playoffs, Tenerife’s football players can relax and exhale. They will prefer to slowly roll the ball in the midfield, waiting for the opponent’s mistakes, rather than to attack without looking back and risk the health of the players. Thus, the hosts who are tired and dependent on the home pitch will support the low-scoring trend of the local league.

Malaga lost in the last two matches of the championship, but, firstly, they were played at home, and secondly, the team looked no worse than the opponent did at least statistically. The randomness factor played its role. If we look at a longer distance, Malaga’s results are impressive – before the last two unjust defeats, it did not score points in only one of 14 attempts. Probably, Malaga wants to take out the anger for recent failures on a historically convenient opponent.
Malaga didn’t lose to Tenerife in any of the last 11 head-to-head meetings. Most likely, it will not lose now. However, being the favorite of the confrontation, it is unlikely to act from a position of strength, not only because it had only two days of rest, but also because even a draw will allow it to break away from the relegation zone. In general, this game will become viscous, pragmatic and poor in goal attempts, as well as 10 of 11 of the above-mentioned head-to-head matches, in which no more than three goals were scored.
Prediction for the match: Malaga to win with +0.5 handicap and Under 3.5 goals scored
