Getafe Host Malaga in Search of Goals
Getafe sit 17th after six games and have managed just one clean sheet while scoring only half a goal per match on average. Malaga sit bottom and concede 2.3 goals a game away from home, where they have also failed to score in most outings. Getafe at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez average one goal scored and 0.7 conceded, a slight improvement on their overall record. Malaga’s absences include J. Cajuste, M. Diarra, J. Lobete and D. Murillo, leaving their attack thin. Getafe miss A. Abqar, Juanmi, Kiko Femenia and M. Martin, which may blunt their own forward play. In the last ten meetings Getafe won six and Malaga four, with seven of those games producing under 2.5 goals but most still clearing 1.5. The game may unfold as a tight contest where one quick break or set-piece settles whether the total stays low.
