Since the Club’s re-launch in 1994, the only First Division clash that Málaga and Granada have played was earlier this season when the Blue and Whites won 4-0. The main goal scorer on that occasion was Santi Cazorla who managed two goals against the Red and Whites in the match at La Rosaleda. After winning against Sevilla last week, the Malaguistas said goodbye to the stretch of six games without a win.
