They managed to take a breath of fresh air in the previous match they have played against Racing Santander, who they defeated by a score of 1-0.

What makes this match special is that Ibiza has not lost to Malaga in the only two previous meetings they have played against each other, and it is worth remembering that in the last one, the Celeste team won 5-0. Ibiza won its last home game and is expected to repeat the the same performance here.
Prediction: Ibiza win by a score of 2-1.
