Prediction: 1-0
Castellon
After Rayo Vallecano ruined their survival hopes, Castellon will be looking to give fans some cheer when they take on Malaga in the last game of the season. Castellon, though, are on a four-game losing run in La Liga 2, and given their difficulties in front of goal, it is no wonder the bookies see them as underdogs in Sunday’s clash. All Cubillas, Diaz, Garcia, and Ortuno are pushing for a start.
Malaga, on the other hand, aim to put an end to their seven-game winless run, and we predict that they will take advantage of the current atmosphere in Castellon’s dressing room. Los Boquerones have not been impressive at their La Rosaleda this season, but we predict that they will record their sixth home win of the process on Matchday 42. Serbia international Stefan Scepovic should continue to lead the line for the hosts.
