Osasuna have won just one of their last 12 matches in all competitions, form which currently sees the Basque club rooted to the bottom of the table.
In recent weeks, however, the hosts have drawn three games. A narrow 4-3 loss to Sevilla last weekend highlights improvement for the relegation favourites.
Malaga are winless in their last six La Liga matches, losing their last four in disappointing fashion. Marcelo Romero’s men have slipped down to 14th. Place your Bet on NaijaBet.com
