Visitors Edge H2H
This is going to be the 21st time these sides lock horns, Malaga being slightly more successful 9-8 in terms of victories.
Alaves Looking to Bounce Back
Manager Quique Sanchez Flores is under huge pressure after his squad grabbed just one point from last five league games, but thanks to a good start still hold great 7th place.
Alaves grabbed a majority of their points at home in the early stages, claiming three consecutive victories against Getafe 3-0, Villarreal 1-0 and Osasuna 5-2, but then lost the last two to Valencia 1-0 and Atletico Madrid 2-1.
Last weekend, they were more dangerous side than Celta but lost 2-1 in Vigo, ending this clash with 1.06-0.96 expected goals and 20-6 shots (9-3 on target). Hugo Novoa Ramos scored a consolation just before stoppage time.
Malaga Struggling in Top Flight
Malaga made their long-awaited comeback to La Liga earlier this year, but are not looking good among the elite, sitting bottom of the table with just four points after nine rounds (still winless).
Their current goal difference on the road is 1-8, registering three defeats to Atletico Madrid 2-0, Real Madrid 4-0 and Getafe 1-0, while the sole point was earned at Celta Vigo 1-1.
Last weekend, Malaga hosted Real Sociedad, conceded two early goals and never recovered, losing the encounter convincingly 5-2.
