Leganes looking to stretch unbeaten run

Leganes head into this game unbeaten in their last six league matches. It is to be noted that they have won only two of those games with four ending in draws. What’s more, they have also been solid defensibly across those six games keeping clean sheets in three of them. They were held to a goalless draw in their most recent game away at Mirandes.

Following their failed attempt at promotion in the 18/19 season, they haven’t managed to get back to the top as it is going to be yet another under-par season for Malaga. They find themselves in 15th place with just 50 points from 40 league games. Although there’s still a chance at finishing in the top half, a record of four losses and two draws in their last six games doesn’t point to that happening.

Leganes vs Malaga Prediction: 1-0

Leganes head into this game with the second-best home record in the league winning 14 of their 20 games at the La Rosaleda. Although Malaga is decent on its travels, we would be siding with the home side to pick up maximum points.
