Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Following a heavy 5-1 loss to Real Valladolid, Amorebieta will look to return to winning ways in Segunda Division when they take on Malaga at Lezama Facilities. The Basques aim to keep their survival hopes alive, but given their poor form in the Spanish second tier, home win should not be considered. Both Ros and Unzueta are pushing for a start, while the likes of Mikel San Jose and Josu Ozkoidi remain in the recovery room.
Los Boquerones, on the other hand, are safe for now, but they can’t afford any complacency in the remainder of the season. Malaga are eager to escape the danger zone, and they should take advantage of Amorebieta’s shaky defence. As for the visiting side, defender Escassi Olivia is banned for the match, while both Juande Rivas and Genaro Rodriguez are sidelined with injuries.
