Spanish Primera Liga Match Previews – Malaga vs Espanyol, Sevilla vs Real Zaragoza

Espanyol travel to La Rosaleda this sunday to face a Malaga side who look to move into fourth position in the Spanish Primera Liga.  Espanyol are currently 13th in the division and a win will push them to within 8 points off a UEFA Europa League qualification placing.  Malaga are 5th and a win will move them into a Champions League Qualification position.

Current form:

Malaga – W D D L L W W

Espanyol – L D L W W W D

Malaga’s form has dipped slightly in recent weeks mainly because they have been focusing on the UEFA Champions League.  Espanyol have been inconsistent throughout this season and although both sides are relatively good defensively, bookmakers side with Malaga.

Gamingtips Prediction – Malaga 2:1 Espanyol

This match gets underway at 11:00 GMT+0.

Sevilla vs Real Zaragoza

Real Zaragoza travel to the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan stadium in need of a victory to push themselves five points clear of the relegation zone.  Sevilla are currently 11th and a win will move them to within 5 points off a UEFA Europa League placing.  Real Zaragoza are struggling in 17th, just two points above the relegation zone and with games trickling away, they need to get at least a point from Sundays game.

Current form:

Sevilla – L W D L W L W

Real Zaragoza – D L D L L D D

Real Zaragoza’s main issue is scoring goals (scored just 25 in 27 games) and while their defensive record is better than Sevilla’s overall this season, they fail to outscore most teams in the division.  Bookmakers side strongly with Sevilla.

Current betting odds – Sevilla (2/5) Draw (7/2) Real Zaragoza (7/1)

Gamingtips Prediction – Sevilla 3:1 Real Zaragoza

This match gets underway at 16:00 GMT+0.
