Malaga vs Albacete Prediction & BETTING TIPS - 22/02/2026

Malaga have been impressive of late, particularly at home (DWWWW) with 2.60 points per game, scoring 2 goals per game at La Rosaleda and conceding just 0.8 on average. Given Albacete’s ups and downs, our prediction firmly points toward Home Win. Their form indicates a strong attack and fairly solid defense, with 80% BTTS, showing that Malaga games often see both teams score. Squad news: midfielder Aaron Ochoa is suspended, but he is not a regular starter, so impact is minimal.Albacete , on the other hand, are solid but slightly inconsistent. They average 1.50 PPG overall and struggle away (0.75 goals scored on average). El Queso Mecanico have four injuries—Cedeno, Marin, Neva, and Pepe—which could affect defensive depth, especially in an away match. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team ahead of the trip to Andalusia.
