MALAGA V RAYO VALLECANO PREDICTIONS AND PREVIEW: BETTING STATS AND FACTS

Malaga have made a great start to la liga and sit 3^rd in the table with 18 points after 9 matches.  They are 5-3-1 overall and have the best defence in la liga, conceding just 5 goals.  They are 2-2-1 over their past 5 matches so their form may be dipping slightly but they have continued to win their home matches during this time and have two home matches in a row now so they will be aiming to pick up 6 points.  3 of their last 4 matches have ended with over 2.5 goals.

Rayo Vallecano are looking to build on their 15^th place finish last season and have made a decent start with 3 wins and 1 draw from their first 9 matches.  They sit in 13^th place at the moment but there is only 3 points difference to 8^th place or 3 points to 18^th so the league is very tight at the moment and one week can change things.  They have lost 4 of their last 5 matches with 4 of them having over 2.5 goals.

TEAM NEWS AND RUN OF PLAY

Malaga have been in fantastic form despite having a lot of off field issues.  Their owner pulled the plug on investment which meant a few of their stars had to be sold.  This led to people thinking they’d fall back down the table but if anything they are looking like a better side than last year when they finished 4^th in table. 

They have the best defence in la liga, conceding just 5 goals in 9 matches and are the only side in the Champions League to win all 3 of their matches without conceding a goal.  The team are odds on to make the knockout stages of the Champions League and are in a great position to retain their top 4 la liga finish. 

Vallecano have really struggled lately losing 5 of their last 6 matches and are dropping down the table quickly.  They won’t expect to get anything from this match but have games against fellow relegation candidates coming up that they will feel they need to win if they are going to stay up this season.

MALAGA V RAYO VALLECANO PREDICTIONS: 1X2 BETTING PREVIEW

Malaga are huge favourites for this and it and when you look at recent form it is no surprise.  Malaga have won their last 5 home matches in a row, scoring 13 goals and conceding just 2.  Vallecano have lost 4 of their last 5 away matched conceding a huge 19 goals!

Despite their low odds I’m still backing Malaga to win at 1.42 with Pinnacle.

MALAGA - RAYO VALLECANO PREDICTIONS: ASIAN HANDICAP PREVIEW

Malaga have won 3 of their last 5 home wins by 2 or more goals so I’ll be using the AH market to look at Malaga -1.  This will give us our stake back if Malaga win by a single goal but the bet will win if they win by 2 or more.

BetVictor are top price here on Malaga -1 at 1.67

MALAGA - RAYO VALLECANO PREDICTIONS: TOTAL GOALS PREVIEW

These teams have seen plenty of goals this season.  Malaga has scored 13 goals in 5 games and has 4 of the 5 games finishing in over 2.5 goals.  Vallecano have conceded a huge 19 goals in 5 away games and have also scored 10 themselves, and all games have finished over 2.5 goals.

It is no surprise the over is a strong favourite but I still think there is value to be had with BetVictor who are offering Over 2.5 Goals at 1.67.
