Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 1-1
Malaga
Sporting Gijon will look to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Zaragoza when they face Malaga in the Segunda Division round 25. Los Rojiblancos quickly bounced back from a heavy Copa del Rey loss to Copa del Rey, with the team regaining a much-needed confidence, but they are still eight points behind the playoffs berth. Midfielder Nacho Mendez has yet to overcome an ACL injury, while Axel Bamba remains doubtful.
Los Boquerones, on the other hand, aim to put an end to their three-game winless run, and fans believe that new boss Sergio Pellicer is going to help the team get back on course. Since Malaga are desperate to escape the relegation zone, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Haitam Abaida remains in the recovery room, while Diego Murillo will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
