They may both be roughly in midtable (i.e. not in the European places or in severe relegation trouble) but <span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: 600; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">Eibar and Málaga are separated by nine points</span> and the home side are a good bet to come out on top.<br style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />The Gunners lost to Sevilla last week but there's no great shame in that and their three results prior to that were hugely heartening: they beat Deportivo La Coruña 3-1 at the end of January and followed that up with back-to-back 4-0 wins over Valencia and Granada. Confidence should be high, then, and <span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: 600; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline;">they are always a solid proposition at Ipurua</span>, where they have won seven of their 12 league games this term.<br style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />Málaga snuck past Las Palmas on Monday night, bringing an end to an 11-match winless streak.

Scoring goals was an issue last year for North and they have left out there best tall forwards in Waite and Brown. Former Swan Tom Mitchell makes his club debut for Hawthorn, wearing Jordan Lewis’ famous number 3. Like the Roos, the Hawks have named a weaker side than the one they put on the park against the Cats in week one. Despite this, the Wolf thinks the Hawks have too much scoring power for the Roos and can see them winning a close one here.</span></div> <div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;"> <strong style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Rising Star Watch</span></strong></div> <div style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;"> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Young Hawk Teia Miles ($26) had a great game last week with 17 disposals in limited game time.
