Game: MALAGA vs MALLORCA
Type: SPANISH LA LIGA
Date: 18 April, 2009
PREVIEW
A win over fierce rivals Mallorca will catapult Malaga to the coveted 4th spot currently held by Valencia. After seeing out Villareal 2-0 last week, the home is aware that any slip-ups in the final stretch of the season will wreck any hopes they harbour to qualify for Europe next season. At home, they currently have a record of 7W 4D 4L and scoring an average of 1.56 goals while conceding 1.31 goals in return.
Mallorca will provide stiff competition to Malaga's aspiration as they themselves are on a good run, losing only once in their last 10 outings. During that stretch, they have scored an average of 1.60 goals while conceding 1.00 goals in return. With such a ratio this game will definitely see goals a plenty.
KWIK STATS
HOME > MALAGA
AWAY > MALLORCA
THE PICK
The honours are pretty even between these two teams, with two draws in between wins. With a half ball advantage given to MALLORCA, i'd stick with the visitors to pull off a surprise result as the home team still have the tendency to leak goals at home.
