Scepovic enters Malaga's plans. Sfefan Scepovic has come to Malaga with the rod ready. He made his debut as a gunner in Lugo, but that goal was not worth it because the referee conceded it to David Lombán. This Saturday in Las Palmas he scored a sensational goal that, now, he went up to the scoreboard and to his private account. He is the fourteenth Blue and White player to score this season. He already has 136 minutes in six games. Malaga will be aware of his future salary limit to see if he will have him for next season.
The playoff dream. With seven games to go until the end of the championship, Málaga have far exceeded their expectations for the beginning of the season. With 49 points, his permanence in the First Division is virtually guaranteed. To avoid relaxation, Sergio Pellicer, the coach, is committed to achieving the famous 51 points as soon as possible to seal the goal and “be ambitious”. The best way to avoid relaxation. Nobody in the club talks about a 'promotion playoff'. But the way things have gotten, why not dream?
Ale Benítez, another ‘academic'. The one from Mijas has three games as the owner of the right back to the detriment of Venezuelan Alexander González. He is a determined and disciplined player who also adapts to the left back. In Las Palmas he did a great job with Pejiño, one of the most prominent in Pepe Mel's eleven. The Academy continues to produce good talent.
Yanis is sewn free. It is what has to be one of the most incisive players in the category, that the adversaries have to stop the Algerian franc “civilly or criminally.” He receives many fouls and the man does not complain, but he must be up to his hat. Even so, he has five goals and five assists. Those are points for Málaga.
Two defeats in ten games. Malaga has added 18 of the last 30 points. They have only lost two games in this section of the season (against Mirandés and Almería). What remains is the sea of interesting. Espanyol, Mallorca and Leganés must be measured. Promotion judge?
Pending the infirmary. Caye Quintana had to withdraw due to an overload. Sergio Pellicer hopes to be able to count on him for the next match against Fuenlabrada. Luis Muñoz, Josua Mejías, Ismael Casas and Orlando Sá are still pending evolution, as does Alberto Escassi, who missed the last game due to a blow to his right heel.
