Match preview

Our model makes Alaves clear favourites, giving them a 63% chance of winning against 21% for the draw.

Our fair price for "Home win" is 1.58 — the pick only has value at a bookmaker price above that.

We expect 2.9 goals in total (1.98 for Alaves, 0.87 for Malaga), which points to Over 2.5 as a secondary angle.

Alaves sit 11th on 12 points; Malaga are 20th on 5.

Check team news before kick-off — a late change to either line-up moves the numbers.
