Ferrol vs Malaga Prediction & Betting Tips (17 August)

To say that Ferrol come into this contest in poor form would be somewhat of an understatement, with the LaLiga2 strugglers suffering 11 defeats in their previous 15 top-flight matches. Although Malaga have not been firing on all cylinders this season, the fact remains that the Malaga have enjoyed eight wins in their last 11 fixtures at this level.

High-flying Ferrol don’t tend to be involved in too many thrillers, with 15 of their previous 20 home matches in the LaLiga2 serving up under 2.5 goals. This is a state of affairs that Malaga have become familiar with in recent away games, as six of their last nine top-flight trips have also fallen into this same low-scoring category.

Over the course of their previous 18 matches at this elite level of the LaLiga2, Ferrol have been involved in no fewer than 14 contests in which at least one of the two goalkeepers has emerged with a clean sheet. This has also been the case in 16 of the last 19 Malaga away games in the top-flight, so don’t expect the net to bulge at both ends in this encounter.
