Team
Levante
Levante’s stunning performances under the rule of Paco Lopez have been brought to an end with a 3-0 defeat at the hands of giant Atletic Madrid.
As they host La Liga’s bottom-team Malaga, Iván López, Raúl Fernández, Cheick Doukouré, and Toño are all going to be ruled out because of their respective injury.
On a different note, Rober and Erick Cabaco are expected to be preferred to Chema and Sergio Postigo at centre-back.
Malaga
Only a miracle could save Malaga from avoiding the relegation zone. With 17 points, the club is not expected to come into the match with confidence.
As they face Levante, Ignasi Miquel and Diego Gonzalez are both doubts at centre-back. But Luis Hernandez should return in time for the match after serving suspension. Federico Ricca should also start at left-back, with Diego Rolan featuring on the right flank of the attack.
Prediction
Malaga is likely to bid goodbye to La Liga if they suffer a defeat against Levante. The club will automatically be relegated to Segunda (Watch how this contest unfolds. Sign Up on 12BET to get the best match preview and 12BET Sportsbook betting odds).
