Malaga vs Almeria Prediction & Betting tips
Without a doubt, the process of the match will be intense and fought throughout the 90 minutes of play. And we say this because both groups are characterized by being combative and competitive in their action. Therefore, and knowing that the Andalusian team usually scores and yields goals in the Rosaleda, we believe that the bet “plus 1.5 goals” is interesting to bet. Remember that the “rojiblancos” can complicate this exit, just as Las Palmas did some time ago. It looks like it will be an even duel in which both cadres can recover from a hypothetical initial disadvantage.
Malaga:
The Andalusian team visited Girona in Montilivi last weekend and lost 1-0 tightly. He currently has 4 points in the Smartbank League table, product of 1 win, 1 draw and 1 drop in total. Before the trip against the Catalans, the squad had defeated Santander Racing 0-1 in the hour, and then tied 1-1 against Las Palmas in the Rosaleda.
It remains a tactical and competitive eleven between the lines, standing out for reaping adjusted results in its first 3 league appearances. On this occasion, Málaga is expected to take the leading role of the match, as it will play at the Rosaleda home.
Therefore, headlines are expected to advance the lines gradually, seeking to unbalance the bands from the first half. Spaces will be beyond the combative style of his rival. Of course, it is not ruled out that the holders can also score if they take advantage of a stopped ball (corner or free kick near the area).
Almeria:
The “rojiblanco” team received Huesca last Saturday at the Mediterranean Games stadium and achieved a fairly tight 1-0 victory. These days, he has 7 points in the general table, proving to have started the tournament in the best possible way. Before this duel, he had thrashed Albacete 3-0 at home and equalized 1-1 against Racing de Santander with a goal converted at 49 minutes of the second half.
At the moment it is still a compact and uncomfortable eleven to overcome thanks to the solidarity effort of its players. This time it is expected that Almeria take their precautions, as it will hit one of the most feared sets of the competition.
And we say this because the Andalusians have top-level players for the category. Logic indicates that the “rojiblancos” will not risk too much, their goal being rather to keep their goal zero. From there, they will try to take advantage of the occasional opportunity they have to score, being able to do so if they elaborate correctly.
