The last encounter between these teams in this competition was on November 8, 2025, which ended in a draw (2-2). Recent head-to-head records favor the home team, showing 2 wins, 3 draws, and 1 loss in their last 6 matches. In this match, playing at home may play a significant role, as Málaga has shown notable differences in results when playing as visitors and as hosts.

Analysis of Córdoba

After 8 wins, 8 draws, and 5 losses, the home team sits in 9th position with 32 points. In their last match, they won against Huesca away (1-2), having previously won at home against Burgos (2-0). This is a team that performs consistently away, recording 4 wins, 6 draws, and 5 losses in their last 30 away games; compared to 5 wins, 6 draws, and 4 losses at home. In the league, Córdoba has taken 15 points out of a possible 30, with 4 wins, 3 draws, and 3 losses in their last 10 home contests. The most common halftime result at home has been 0-0, occurring in 4 of their 10 matches. Their attack has been effective, scoring in 8 out of their last 10 games in this competition. In 21 matches, they conceded the first goal 9 times and managed only 2 comebacks. In the last 10 home games in this competition, they allowed 8 of their 18 total goals between the 46th and 60th minutes.

The teams Córdoba and Málaga are on different paths but have shown consistent gameplay. Córdoba’s last match saw them successfully overcoming Huesca—thanks to goals by Carlos Isaac and Jacobo González—bringing them back to winning form. They play with a 4-3-3 formation, emphasizing width and aggressive offense. With Jacobo González, Adrián Fuentes, and Carracedo in the forward line, they rotate positions, keeping the opposing defense on edge. This dynamic creates space for midfielders to make penetrating runs, which has become a critical aspect of their gameplay. It appears that the full squad will be available for the upcoming match.

Analysis of Málaga

The visiting team is currently positioned 7th, having amassed 32 points with 9 wins, 5 draws, and 7 losses. In their penultimate match, they won away against Sporting Gijón (1-3). In their last match, they secured a home victory against Ceuta (2-1). This is a team that tends to perform better at home, having recorded 4 wins, 2 draws, and 9 losses in their last 30 away matches; contrasted with 9 wins, 5 draws, and 1 loss at home. Over the last 10 away games in the league, Málaga has 3 wins, 1 draw, and 6 losses, earning 10 points from a possible 30. The most common halftime result for them as visitors has been 1-0, which occurred in 4 of their 11 matches. Their defensive solidity has not been their strength, conceding at least one goal in all of their last 10 games, yet their attack has seen success, scoring in 9 of their last 10 matches in this competition. In 21 games, they conceded the first goal 9 times and managed only 2 comebacks. Notably, they have scored 5 of their 10 goals in the last 10 away games between the 46th and the 60th minutes, while conceding 6 of their 14 goals between the 76th and 90th minutes.

The teams Málaga and Ceuta faced off last round, with Málaga winning 2-1 thanks to both goals from Chupe. They are adopting a 4-4-2 setup, with Chupe and Adrián Niño acting as the primary forwards, aiding in offensive progression. Behind them, Aarón Ochoa, Carlos Dotor, Izan Merino, and David Larrubia build a midfield line emphasizing short circulations, consistent approaches, and spatial compensations, allowing the team to advance as a unit while maintaining offensive pressure without being overly exposed. It seems the entire squad will be available for the next match.
