Getafe vs Malaga Preview

 

Getafe vs Malaga

Competition – Spanish Primera

Stadium – Coliseum Alfonso Perez

Date: 12th January 2018

Kick-off time – 20:00 GMT

Friday and Monday games do not command so much excitement from La Liga fans and this game is set to be another one of those matches however, it is a major fixture for the teams involved especially Malaga who are looking to avoid the drop this season.

Girona have been hailed as the best newcomers of the new league season but Getafe have done enough to get some of that praise too.

They will move to 8th  in the league table if they win this home game which is very possible.

They have hosted 6 of the top 7 teams in the league this season and still have a home win ratio of over 50%.

They have kept a clean sheet in 44% of their home games while conceding only 0.78 goals per game at home all season.

Getafe have won their last four home games against Malaga each by 1-0.

Malaga’s manager Michel would be deceiving himself if he has not started feeling the pressure especially after their 1-0 home loss to Espanyol on Monday.

After this match the season will be at the half way point and they could be in real danger of getting relegated if they don’t add to their 11 points so far this season.

On Monday, their fans who have been solidly behind them began to turn on them following another sloppy display.

Malaga’s away record this season is terrible as they have lost 89% of their away games.
