Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Cordoba and Malaga square off against each other at Estadio Nuevo Arcangel in what is expected to be an interesting Andalusian derby. Cordoba aim to recover from a 3-1 loss to Elche and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against los Boquerones. Both Theo Zidane and Ander Yoldi are pushing for a start, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
Malaga, on the other hand, made a promising start to the season, with the team sharing the spoils with both Ferrol and Mirandes, while beating Albacete at home ground. Beating Cordoba on the road, though, is easier said than done and we predict that the two sides are going to share the spoils in the La Liga round 4. You should bear in mind that under 2.5 goals have been netted in each of their last three meetings in all competitions. Defender Alex Pastor is banned for the visiting side following his sending off in the triumph over El Queso Mecanico.
