Malaga will host Deportivo La Coruna at La Rosaleda on Sunday in another round of the 2025-26 Spanish La Liga 2 campaign. The home side seem to have run out of steam after a solid start to their season and sit 19th in the league standings, just two points above Real Sociedad B at the bottom of the pile.
They suffered a 3-0 defeat away at Real Racing Club last weekend, having begun the contest well before a red card to Francisco Montero just before the interval allowed their opponents to take control of the game and claim all three points.
Deportivo La Coruna, meanwhile, have made a quite remarkable start to their season, with last season's 16th-placed team making an early push for the promotion playoffs. They played out a 1-1 draw with Almeria last time out, finding themselves a goal down at the break before star winger Yeremay Hernandez curled home a superb equalizer in the second half.
Trending
The visitors remain atop the table with 16 points from nine matches and will be looking to extend their unbeaten start to the season this weekend.

Los Albicelestes have lost their last four games on the bounce after going undefeated in their previous four. They have won just one of their last five competitive home games and have work to do this weekend.
Os Brancoazuis, meanwhile, are the only unbeaten side in the top two tiers of Spanish football. They are slight favorites heading into the weekend clash but may have to settle for a point in a fixture they have struggled in of late.
