Preview: Real-Malaga

While Malaga have nothing but pride to play for, the pressure is on Real Sociedad to stay in the Europa League hunt with a win.

La Real boss Eusebio Sacristan on finishing in the top six: “We want to win and pick up the three points in order to continue going for our objective.

“We have it in front of us and we’ll fight for it to the end.

“I’m convinced that if we pick up 68 points, we’ll be happy and have the peace of mind of having done everything in our power to achieve our objective.”

Malaga boss Michel Gonzalez on his side’s opponents: “La Real have been the most consistent team this season in terms of attacking and collective play.

“The game will be very interesting and I’m a big fan of our opponents because they’re very good.”
