Match Preview

Malaga only have one major injury concern and that is Julio Baptista, who is still recovering from a foot problem. The Brazilian did not take part in Thursday's training session, and it is touch and go whether the former Real Madrid man will face his former club.

Manuel Pellegrini's side will also be without goalkeeper Willy Caballero, who is suspended after receiving a straight red card in the last Primera Division match, a 3-0 defeat against Levante.

Madrid will still be without Raul Albiol, who is currently sidelined after fracturing his cheekbone on international duty. There are still concerns over the fitness of Ricardo Carvalho and Nuri Sahin, with both expected to miss the match at La Rosaleda.

Kaka started the last Liga match against Betis and scored a wonderful goal to complement a very good performance, and with Angel di Maria somewhat off-form midweek, the Brazilian may once again be given another opportunity.

Jose Mourinho is spoiled in his attacking options at the moment, with both Karim Benzema and Gonzalo Higuain in excellent form. However, the Argentine may just get the nod after scoring a magnificent hat-trick in his last start.

DID YOU KNOW?

    Malaga have scored less than half the amount of goals that Real Madrid have notched up in La Liga this season, with 10 goals to 24.

    Manuel Pellegrini's side spent €58 million on new recruits during the summer transfer window.

    Malaga's top goalscorer last season in La Liga was Jose Rondon with 14 goals, 26 less than Madrid's highest marksman Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese netted 40, a division record.

    Real Madrid have scored 21 goals in their last five games.

    The last encounter between Real Madrid and Malaga came in March of this year when Jose Mourinho's men destroyed the visitors 7-0. Ronaldo fied a hat-trick.

    If Jose Mourinho's men lose this match, then Malaga will join them on 16 points in La Liga.

**bi eda ba fi eyin si owo otun ti ofi eyin si to si to tun wa fi eyin rin de iseyin, eni ma yin'ni ma yin'ni**

@ topic,
make I no lie I dey fear this team, na my former coach(pellegrinni) and players(baptista and RVN) we wan face.
i just hope it all goes wrong for them and it goes perfectly well for us.

My line up is
------------------Casillas---------------
Ramos----Cavalho----Pepe-----Marcelo
---------Alonso------Granero-----------
DiMaria-----------Kaka-------------CR7
-----------------Higuain-------------------

I really miss the gypsy, I hope he gets to play today.

but just realised cavalho is not fully fit yet and coentrao is also out.

so ramos to the middle and arbeloa to the RB

Malaga should win this.

^^^
very funny.
stop dreaming yuyeah

0 - 2

Ronaldo on hat trick and madrid not even playing to top gear, i think ozil and benzema should come in for the second half though.

Final Score 7! - 0!

These LL refs arf cunts. Malaga should have had two clear penalties.

You mean ball to hand?

Referee fit be R.M fan. Final score may be 7-0.

Which one be ball to hand?
Ramos handball was not given. Joaquin was also brought down in the box by Khedira, no penalty!

La Liga is a joke! *smashes tv*

all we do is WIN WIN WIN, HOlla real madrid F©, haterz kiss ma *$$

The scoreline doesn't tell the whole story. It could easily have been 4-4.
