Espanyol welcome Malaga at RCDE Stadium, Cornella de Llobregat on Sunday, Apr 11 at 3:00 PM in a LaLiga fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 2 points split them in the table.
Espanyol come into this fixture in mixed form (1W 0D 1L). Malaga travel in mixed form (0W 1D 1L), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.
History strongly favours Espanyol here — they've won 7 of 10 previous meetings against Malaga, with 3 draws. Their last encounter ended in Espanyol won 3–0. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 2.6 per game in recent meetings.
Verdict: The gulf in league position makes Espanyol clear favorites, but Malaga have shown they can grind out results. Expect Espanyol to take the points, potentially without being at their best.
