4912
We have a full round of fixtures to look forward to in the Spanish Segunda Division this week and on the 15th of November we have a meeting between Málaga and Tenerife.
This is the final match of the weekend in the Segunda Division and the hosts begin this round of fixtures in 11th place on 20 points and the visitors are in 4th place on 27 points.
Málaga come into the match having lost 3-1 at FC Cartagena last weekend. It was a disappointing result against a team who were one point behind Málaga prior to the game.
FC Cartagena opened a 3 goal lead by the 65th minute and Málaga’s goal came too late in the game to offer any hope of taking something from the match.
That result means Málaga have won only 2 of their last 7 games, all of which have come in the Segunda Division. The victories both came at home against Lugo and Real Sociedad B.
Trends show Málaga are difficult to beat when playing at home and they are on an 8 match unbeaten run at the Estadio La Rosaleda.
Málaga have won 5 of their last 6 league games on home soil and have seen under 2.5 goals in 6 of their last 7 when playing in-front of their own fans.
Málaga have been good defensively in home Segunda Division fixtures, keeping a clean sheet in 6 of their last 8.
Tenerife make the trip to the Estadio La Rosaleda on the back of a 2-1 victory at home over Girona last weekend.
Tenerife opened the scoring after only 14 minutes and despite conceding an equaliser just after half-time, they scored the winning goal with 10 minutes remaining on the clock.
That result means Tenerife are undefeated in their last 4 league matches, beating Leganes away 2-1 and Burgos 4-0 at home. The only dropped points came at Ibiza and the match ended in a 0-0 draw.
Tenerife are undefeated in 3 of their last 4 away Segunda Division fixtures. In fact, they have lost only 2 of their 10 most recent away games in the league. Trends show they have kept 3 clean sheets in their last 7 matches on the road, including their most recent away game which ended 0-0.
Team news and Málaga hope Hicham Boussefiane will be fit following a muscle injury but Sekou Gassama and Luis Muñoz remain on the treatment table.
Tenerife will be without the injured duo of Matías Nahuel and Javi Alonso. Borja Lasso has a muscle problem and remains doubtful.
This has the makings of being an extremely close game and it is difficult to split the teams. Both teams have shown they can keep a clean sheet recently and it would not come as a surprise to see this one end level, without any goals.
