MALAGA vs. REAL MADRID Live Stream FREE Online: 2014 Spanish Liga BBVA Table, Live Coverage From Málaga, Projected Lineups and TACTICAL PREVIEW

Two clubs in opposite halves of the Spanish Liga BBVA table will do battle today in a league match between Málaga and Real Madrid. The first-division clash scheduled for 3 p.m. ET will be held at La Rosaleda in Málaga and can be live streamed here free.

For Real Madrid, focus remains key when they visit Los Boquerones on Sunday. An epic confrontation with Barcelona is just a week away, but Madrid must avoid the trap of a Málaga side currently sitting 13th in the table. Maintaining their three-point lead over Atlético Madrid and four-point lead over Barcelona is of the utmost importance if the club hopes to capture another league title.

Carlo Ancelotti believes his men are well aware of that fact (h/t to Marca). "I trust the players," Ancelotti said. "We all understand that this is a very important game. We have said many times that at this point of the season all games are important. Against Málaga we have to play with the same attitude, intensity and concentration that we did against Levante," he added.

"We are not talking about the Clasico. We are convinced that the game to be played is against Málaga. After that we will have the Champions League."
