Malaga will look to overturn the 1-0 deficit when they host FC Porto in the second leg last 16 encounter of the Champions League.
After seeing fellow Spanish side Barcelona pull off a remarkable comeback, Malaga will also be keen on moving onto the quarterfinals, but know they face a tough task against Porto, who have plenty of experience in Europe.
"It is a different match," Malaga manager Manuel Pellegrini said. "We have already played 90 minutes of the 180. We have to turn it around and they can't score here. It is important not to concede any goals.
"There is a lot of expectation in Malaga as we have the chance to get through to the next stage and we are focused on qualifying. We need to be patient and we must not allow ourselves to be affected by nerves. We need to score a goal -- the sooner the better.
"Every game is different and there are a lot of circumstances which could influence the outcome of the match. I've seen the players training with a lot of intensity and the goal is to get through to the next stage and put Malaga among the best eight teams in Europe. We have a chance of winning against Porto and we are concentrating on that."
Porto will know scoring a single goal at Malaga will mean the home side will have to net at least three to advance, and the Portuguese side will look to take advantage of that fact.
"Our experience doesn't guarantee that we will win -- what is really important is our quality and the way we play," Porto boss Vitor Pereira said. "I believe in our work, both individually and as a group. We know what we can do and that Malaga will want to score early. We don't play to defend a lead."
Joao Moutinho and Eliaquim Mangala are doubts for Porto while Eliseu is ruled out for Malaga. The Spanish side, though, welcome back Julio Baptista from injury.
