Alaves v Malaga Team News

Alaves have been anything but successful so far at home this campaign, amassing only six points from eight home fixtures - which stands for the worst record in La Liga. And with Babazorros so uninspired in their own arena, Malaga, in their turn, are the club who are suffering the most away from home, with manager Michel's men having lost seven of their eight outings.

Anchovies have played some dull football so far, having failed to score a goal in ten of the sixteen matches this season, while Alaves themselves are far from being goal-scoring at home, finding the net just six times on eight occasions. It suggests we might see a low-scoring affair - this is a six-pointer after all.

Teams' Possible Starting Lineups:

Alaves: Pacheco - Duarte, Maripan, Ruano, Aguirregabiria - Garcia, Pina - Pedraza, Burgui, Gomez - Haddadi (4-2-3-1 formation)

Malaga: Jimenez - Gonzalez, Baysse, Hernandez, Cifu - Castro, Rolon, Recio, Keko - Rolan, Penaranda (4-4-2 formation)

Alaves & Malaga Missing Players:

Malaga: Miguel Torres, Juan Carlos Perez, Adrian Gonzalez, Roberto Rosales.
