Lugo, Recent FormThe Lugo squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 2-1 away defeat against Real Oviedo, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. During that encounter they had 46% possession and had 8 attempts on goal with 1 on target, while their opponents hit 4 of their 13 shots on goal.
Having conceded 5 goals and scored just 2 in their last 6 games, they have been very fortunate to pick up 4 points. Finding the net regularly has been an issue for them in their home stadium, with zero goals scored in 5 of their last 6 matches. A number of teams visiting The Estadio Anxo Carro have struggled to break through on goal this season so far with the home side having kept 9 clean sheets.
Having drawn their last 4 league games at home and having not won any of their last 7, Luguiño will be keen to grab all 3 points in this fixture.
Málaga, Recent FormThis Málaga side will be full of confidence going into this match against Lugo, having recorded a 1-0 home win against Cartagena in their last league match. They came away from that fixture with a 44% share of the possession and clocked up 8 attempts on goal with 3 on target, in comparison to Cartagena, who managed 13 attempts on goal, 2 of which were on target.
Sergio Pellicer will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 7 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 4 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They will need to tighten up at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in all but 1 of their last 6 away games. After failing to get on the scoresheet in 9 away games out of 18 this season, Pellicer will be looking for a bit more consistency from his forwards.
Unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 matches can be counted as a good run of form, particularly with 3 victories included. Winning away from home has been a bit of a problem for them this season having only managed to win 2 of their 18 league games on the road.
Goalscorer Pablo Chavarría will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Málaga.
Last time these two teams met in the league it ended in disappointment for Lugo, losing 3-2 to Málaga.
Luguiño have struggled for goals when Malaga comes to visit The Estadio Anxo Carro, having scored just 1 goal in their last 3 meetings. Playing away from home, Malaga have kept a clean sheet in 2 of their last 3 league games against Lugo.
With no real injury worries, Lugo manager Iñigo Vélez will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
There is only really one injury concern for the Malaga manager Sergio Pellicer ahead of this clash, with Lago Júnior (COVID-19) missing out, which gives Pellicer a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
