Bottom side Málaga are in desperation mode and they will seek to get off the bottom with a home match on Sunday against Zaragoza.
Málaga, who eliminated Zaragoza on away goals in the Copa del Rey before the international break, have not won in the league since the opening day of the season 30 August. The winless run in all competitions is now at 11 games.
Zaragoza, meanwhile, fell 3-1 to Valencia before the international break, and they have just one win in league play in their last five games.
Málaga have just one absence to report, as Edu Ramos is out due to injury for the southerners.
Zaragoza have a few more injury concerns as Peter Luccin, Braulio, Diogo and Pablo Amo are all out with injuries.
This will be a very close encounter, and look for Málaga to break their recent duck in the league with a strong result at home.
