Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

Under 2.5 goals as a betting market simply means there will only be a maximum of 2 goals scored in total by Malaga and R.Santander during the regulation 90 minutes. It's a bet the stats below and the odds both favour on this occasion, and an outcome that we've seen before when these sides go head-to-head. In the absence of an obvious winner, our best bet prediction for this one is under 2.5 goals.
