Malaga vs Leganes Predictions and Free Tips from our expert tipsters when the teams go head-to-head in the Spanish La Liga 2 on Monday, 27 March 2023.
Malaga are currently in the relegation zone, and they are trying to make the most of their home fixtures. They have made it a mission to get atop the cut-off at any cost.
And this upcoming encounter appear to be a great opportunity for them. Not only are Leganes one of the three teams to have remained winless in the last five game weeks, but they also registered just two victories on the road till now.
Contrary to recent form, Leganes have the better h2h record in the past few years. They registered a 1-0 win in the revere fixture, and also scored two or more goals in five of the past seven clashes.
It is also to be noted that all but two h2h meetings at this venue had three or more goals since 1999.
Malaga lost just twice at this venue since October, and are desperately trying to climb over the relegation cut-off. They are concentrating quite a lot to amass as many points as they can from home fixtures.
Meanwhile, Leganes are one of the only three squads in the league to have remained winless in the past five game weeks, and they also won just twice on the road this whole season. And one of these two wins came against the 21st placed Ibiza.
As things stand, a win is expected for Malaga – a hard-fought one.
Barring just two h2h clashes, 100% of meetings at this venue between the two teams had three or more goals. And with either team not being too hot in terms of defense lately, chances are high for this encounter to turn into a high-scoring affair.
As mentioned, Malaga do have a poor h2h record over the years – despite having the edge this Monday at their home. In fact, Leganes slotted in two or more goals in every single h2h encounter at this ground in the past 24 years.
Malaga lost just twice at home since October, and are on quite an impressive run at home lately. They are determined to extend this streak and climb over the relegation cut-off at any cost.
It helps their cause that Leganes are one of the three teams to have remained winless in the past five game weeks in the league. They also have a 100% winless run on the road all through the season, barring just two fixtures.
By the looks of things, Malaga to Win would be a decent bet at 3.10 odd.
However, not only are they yet to keep a clean sheet at home in an h2h encounter in the past 25 years – but they conceded two or more goals in every single one of these clashes as well.
Likely, the Both Teams to Score wager looks promising at 2.20 odd.
