A combined sum of 12 goals were shared by the two clubs during those clashes, with 4 of them from Los Boquerones and 8 belonging to Nazaríes. That is an average goals per game value of 2.

ℹ️ Team News: Málaga

Regarding absentees, there’s just the sole fitness concern for the Málaga boss Sergio Pellicer to contend with from a near full-strength group. Haitam Abaida (Hamstring injury) is out of contention.

We think that Los Boquerones will possibly opt for a 4-4-2 system for the game with Alfonso Herrero, Diego Murillo, Carlos Puga, Einar Galilea, Dani Sánchez, Antoñito Cordero, Manu Molina, Izan Merino, Julen Lobete, David Larrubia and Chupete.

ℹ️ Team News: Granada

It’s our belief that Nazaríes appear most likely to elect for a 4-2-3-1 formation using Diego Marino, Rubén Sánchez, Miguel Angel Rubio, Loïc Williams, Carlos Neva, Martin Hongla, Sergio Ruiz, Georgiy Tsitaishvili, Gonzalo Villar, Abde Rebbach and Lucas Boye.

💡 Prediction

It’s looking like Granada and Málaga could both well score here although it’s hard to see a clear-cut winner.

Shouldn’t be much in it, and a draw looks quite a realistic result. We’re therefore anticipating a hard-fought 1-1 score at the end of the 90 minutes.
