Malaga vs Racing Santander prediction

At the start of this season, Malaga have started the campaign with just five draws and six defeats in their opening 11 games. The Andalusians succumbed to a regional derby defeat to Real Betis at La Cartuja last week with another hard-fought performance in which their lack of quality undermined their intent.

Racing Santander have been brilliant this season with their 11 La Liga matches having consisted of 44 goals in La Liga. The Cantabrians are porous defensively and that continued at the weekend as they succumbed to a 3-0 hammering at the hands of Real Madrid at El Sardinero last week.

Admirable in their approach, Malaga will again seek to get after Racing with home advantage and so both teams scoring again seems a good bet for this one at La Rosaleda.
