Our call

We looked at this match and did not find a call worth making. That can change as team news comes in: calls are looked at again every fifteen minutes until kick-off, so one can change or come down, and each closes when the match starts. the bet slip stays exactly as posted.

Passing on Málaga CF v Real Racing Club. There is a likely outcome here, but every bookmaker has it shorter than it deserves, so there is nothing to take.

Preview

Málaga should secure a rare victory here despite their league position. While they sit bottom of the table, their recent football suggests results are lagging behind their actual play. They have crafted superior opportunities in their last four matches. Conversely, Racing often surrender better openings than they produce on their travels, having been outplayed in four of their last five away trips. Without Pablo Martínez in midfield, Málaga lose a creator who contributed one goal and two assists. Racing lack cover at the back without Alvaro Mantilla, which is a problem against a red-hot striker. Adrián Niño has five goals this season and will profit. His current streak of scoring in four straight games will be the difference.
