The match between these two historic clubs, who have ascended together from Primera RFEF to the top flight, is about to begin. The official lineups have now been confirmed, and Málaga CF introduces a single modification compared to previous encounters: Juan Cruz will take Larrubia's place.
The confirmed lineup for Málaga CF is as follows: Alfonso Herrero; Carlos Puga, Recio, Einar Galilea, Rafita; Izan Merino, Dani Lorenzo, Dotor; Juan Cruz, Joaquín, and Chupe.
For their part, Deportivo de la Coruña will take the field with: Leo Román; Ximo Navarro, Noubi, Loureiro, Quagliata; Amatucci, Altimira, Mario Soriano, Luismi Cruz, Asp Jensen; and Aubameyang.
Regarding the new additions to the Málaga CF squad, the presence of Pablo Martínez stands out, who is the fifth and final signing of the summer so far. The team's absences remain the same: Adrián Niño, Ochoa, Murillo, Calero, and Moussa.
The main novelty for Deportivo de A Coruña is the inclusion of Yeremay in the squad, as confirmed by coach Antonio Hidalgo. However, the player arrives without match fitness due to groin issues and with his future still undecided, meaning he will not start.
