The hosts occupy a mid table in La Liga. The team is far away from the places giving a right to participate in European football, but they are far from the danger zone. The team`s ambitions are related to remaining in the so-called elite. They hardly hope for anything great when it comes to the King`s Cup, considering that some serious rivals are still in the tournament. The victory over Valencia, however, should not be ignored, especially in that first match, the senior coach Gonzalez will try to take advantage.

The selection of Gonzales for the titular team over the weekend was a little strange, according to the experst, because the attacker Osaven Kajsedo was left on the bench and namely hehas managed to bring the victory over Valencia with two hits. Generally, there is no information about any serious problems with other players.

Malaga - Real Madrid

Malaga welcomes Real Madrid on one of the most exciting matches of the 13th round of the Spanish Primera Division. The match will be played at the stadium "La Rosaleda" this Saturday. The hosts played surprisingly good this season occupying the 6th position in the standings and after the last round made a series of five wins. Real Madrid also made strong season and occupy the 1st place, in a series of 15 wins in all competitions. For the past 15 years, Malaga managed only one defeat against the "white ballet" in 2012.

Team of Malaga plays very quietly this season and without tension, which leads to unexpected results from 11livegoal.com . Beginning of the season was not the best for them and they had won only one point from the sixth round, but then, especially in the beginning of October, Malaga entered in the series of five wins. It will be not surprising if they came up in the top half of the table. As hosts Malaga are one of the few teams in the Primera, which did not make any defeat and even more, in front of its audience, Malaga received only two goals. Coach Javi Gracia will not be able to rely on suspended midfielder Ignacio Camacho and striker Juan Lopez - Huanmi.

Real Madrid in 80% of the games introduced at least 3 goals to their opponents. Champions League lowered the tempo a bit, but this happens after you have ensured participation in the knockout phase. As stated above, the team of Carlo Ancelotti is in a series of 15 consecutive victories and it is unclear when this series will end. Luka Modric is injured, but without him as a perfect cover to his position is Isko.

At this stage, Malaga have no chance against Real Madrid. Guests arrive only for the victory and will take it easily.

Atletico Madrid - Deportivo La Coruna

In the early afternoon on Sunday, one against each other will face the teams of Atletico Madrid and Deportivo La Coruna. The meeting is from the 13th round of Primera Divison. Atletico Madrid takes the third place in the standings with 4 points less than the leader in the league Real Madrid. Their opponents from Deportivo La Coruna are one of the endangered teams in 18th place with 10 points earned.

In the last round of Primera Division, Atletico Madrid defeated Malaga easily with the result 3-1. The most valuable players there were Tiago Mendes, Grizman and Diego Godin. This eighth victory in the row climbed the team of Diego Simeone in the third position and left them in a real game of winning. In the Champions League the team managed to ensure their participation in the knockout phase of the tournament, having categorically win over Greek Olympiakos with 4-0. Against Deportivo La Coruna, Simeone can`t rely on the injured Miranda and suspended Gabi.

Deportivo La Coruna once again failed to take the three points after failing to win with Real Sociedad. After a series of poor results analyzed by soccer livescore , the management of Deportivo freed the old coach and led the team stood to the hands of the former coach of Manchester United - David Moyes. He will have a tough job to get out the team from the relegation zone, but also in his second official game face quite serious rival. In the team of Deportivo La Coruna there are problems with some players. Against Atletico Madrid, Moyes remains without the services of Cinnamon, Farinya, Perez and Lopon.

Atletico Madrid have no other choice except to win this game and to keep a close distance to the two leaders in the standings. Deportivo La Coruna have hard past against Atletico and their last victory at "Vicente Calderon" dates 15 years ago.

Four consecutive failures and one draw pursue coach Eduardo Berisso since November. After the surprising victory over Barcelona at Camp Nou, Celta were in crisis, but now seems to be their serious chance for the three points. We do not expect changes by Berisso. The specialist will have all the major players online and the only injured player is the midfielder Borja Oubinya. Against Almeria, Celta have positive statistics. They won the last two direct meetings between them.

Almeria is in an even more dark series than Celta. The last win of the team was at the end of September when they defeated Deportivo La Coruna as guests. The most interesting is that they still don`t have home win and both of their triumphs are in an away games. After the victory over Deportivo, team of Juan Ignacio Martinez recorded seven losses and two draws. After these results from 11livegoal , the team is expected to go in the relegation zone and it seems that they will fight for survival till the end of the season. Juan Ignacio Martinez will not be able to rely on their goalkeeper Ruben Martinez and midfielder Fernando Soriano.

One of the two teams has to interrupt the negative series in this game and Celta is more likely to do this.

Besiktas meets Galatasaray in a derby of the 16th round of the Turkish Super League. The game will be at the mythical stadium "Inonu" on January 4, 2015. Live broadcast begins a few minutes before 19:00. Before the end of this round, Besiktas is in the second place, but victory could put them into the first place, as the first Fenerbahce already played their match of the circle. Guests from Galatasaray are third, just three points after Besiktas.

Besiktas faces a serious challenge against the big rival Galatasaray and can`t beat them for several years in a row. The latest results from the meetings between them are three losses in a row for Besiktas, which will be a strong motive for the coach Bilic to inspire his players to give the best they can on Sunday and finally score a victory over Galatasaray. Besiktas can achieve this victory. The team is in good shape and recorded seven consecutive wins in the league, as their only defeat came at home from the leader Fenerbahce. Bilic used quite spare players in the last few rounds, but for this game will change the composition. We will see Demba Ba, Saha, Tore, Kavlak, Motta, Franco, Gulum, Kurtulus and Zengin.

Galatasaray are in good shape too. Battle for the top two places in the league standings will be exactly between these two teams and Fenerbahce. Other teams hardly can reach close to them. Galatasaray are also in a good run of four consecutive wins, but as guests conceded two defeats this seasons. They ended the participation in the Champions League tragic and now are able to concentrate all forces in the Super League. Injured players in their camp are defenders Surrey and Chedu, also midfielders Dzemaili and Sneijder.

Arsenal - Hull City

Arsenal takes Hull City in a meeting of the third round of the FA Cup in England. This meeting is a repeat of last year`s final, which makes it quite interesting. The team of Arsenal is favourite with odds of 1.36 for their victory with 9.50 for Hull City (Bet365).

Arsenal has to be very careful in this game, because recently in a meeting of the championship they made a drawn with Hill City at "Emirates" (2-2). Moreover, they still remember the cruel game of "tigers" in last year`s final of the FA Cup. Hull City made a draw 2-2 in the extra time and Arsenal managed to get their hands on the victory after a goal by Ramsey.

Arsenal are not prepared mentally after a heavy defeat by their direct rival in the battle for the Top 3 - Southampton (2:0). After this defeat, the boys of Arsene Wenger interrupted the positive series of four wins and one draw. Should not be forgotten that Arsenal still miss the most of the main players and the reserve stock is not very good. Against Hull City, Wenger can`t rely on midfielders Wilshere, Arteta, Ramsey, Diaby and Ozil and the attackers Danny Welbeck, Podolski and Sanogo.

Hull City started the New Year with an important victory at home over Everton. With this victory, "tigers" have secured a small dose of relaxation and now remains on the 15th position with two points more than the first team in the danger zone. In the FA Cup, they will fight hard, but just like Arsenal, the team of Hull City has a number of problems. Coach Bruce will need to select very carefully the composition for this game, because he can`t rely on his main defenders Dawson and Robertson, also on the supporting midfielders Ramirez, Diame, and Snodgrass.

Arsenal are favorites, but with this problems in defence for both teams, we can hope for at least 3 goals in the match.

Soccer prediction from livescore Arsenal - Hull City: we think that the total numbers of goals scored will be bigger than 2.5.
