Sky Sports Mix, 8pm Friday

La Liga’s basement battle between Deportivo and Malaga may be of crucial significance to both sides but don't expect a goalfest at the Riazor.

The visitors sit rock-bottom and are the lowest scorers in the division with 17 goals this term, while Deportivo have scored just twice in their last nine outings.

Recommendation
Under 1.5 goals
1pt 2-1 general

Key stat
Malaga have kept back-to-back clean sheets in their last two games against Villarreal and Celta Vigo respectively.
