Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Following a goalless draw with Zaragoza, Malaga will look to return to winning ways in La Liga 2 when they take on Racing Santander on Matchday 16. Los Boquerones are after their fifth home win of the season, but they will have to do it without suspended forward Kevin Medina this time out. There are no fresh injury worries in the Andalusian outfit ahead of the visit of Santander.
Los Racinguistas, meanwhile, are on the right track to return to Spanish top flight. Jose Alberto Lopez’s men are leading the chase for automatic promotion, but beating Malaga at Estadio La Rosaleda is easier said than done. A close encounter is on the cards and we predict that the two sides are going to share the spoils in Andalusia. Defender Manu Hernando is banned for the league leaders, while both Juan Carlos Arana and Inigo Sainz-Maza should miss out with injuries.
