Malaga vs Castellon Prediction & Betting Tips (21 January)

Castellon are enjoying an incredible run of success on their top-flight travels, stringing together eight wins on the spin at the highest level of the Primera RFEF. Malaga, have found the going somewhat harder on their own patch of late, suffering four consecutive defeats in which they have conceded 12 goals.

Castellon don’t tend to be involved in too many thrillers, with under 3.5 goals being the order of the day in 18 of their previous 20 matches at the top table of the Primera RFEF. This is definitely something that Malaga can relate to, as 11 of their last 12 games at this level have also served up three goals or fewer, so any deviation from this script would come as a shock.

Since Slaven Bilic picked up the managerial reins, entertainment levels at The Hawthorns have gone through the roof, with all nine of Malaga's Primera RFEF home games this season producing goals at both ends. Given that five consecutive Castellon away matches at this level have followed the same pattern, a repeat performance is expected here.
