Málaga right now

Málaga have made a difficult start and sit 20th in La Liga. A -5.80 xG difference sits behind 3 points from 7 matches, which suggests the results reflect poor underlying performances. They have scored 2.85 fewer than their 5.85 xG, while conceding close to the 11.65 xG against them. They have taken 2.99 fewer points than their chances were worth (5.99), so the table undersells them.
