Betting on Espanyol
Espanyol broke a three match winless streak in the domestic competition with a 1-0 victory over Elche on the last matchday, an expected result considering that it was facing a team that is condemned to relegation.
Moreover, Espanyol currently is in thirteenth place in the general standings with 24 points, only 2 points away from the relegation zone, so the team must try not to lose, especially if it has a home advantage.
Moreover, the team will be visited by an opponent against whom it has not lost in their 2 most recent encounters, with a win and a draw. Now, Espanyol is looking to string together 3 wins against Mallorca, something this team has not been able to achieve since 2008.
Probable lineup (3-5-2): Fernando Pacheco; Sergi Gómez, Jose Gragera, Brian Oliván; Rubén Sánchez, Sergi Darder, Vinicius Souza, Denis Suárez, Oscar Gil; Martin Braithwaite, Javier Puado.
Betting on Mallorca
Mallorca has had a remarkable campaign that has kept it in eighth place in the overall standings, fulfilling the objective of remaining in the top flight and even with the possibility of fighting for a place in the Conference League.
The team will arrive to this match feeling really motivated after having defeated Villarreal in its most recent match, a 4-2 victory that has been a tremendous confidence boost.
That confidence will be very necessary to face this away match, since Mallorca has lost its last four away games in La Liga, and it has not been able to score a goal in these clashes.
Probable lineup (5-4-1): Predrag Rajkovic; Pablo Maffeo, Giovanni González, Antonio Raíllo, Jose Copete, Jaume Costa; Tino Kadewere, Daniel Rodríguez, Inigo Ruiz de Galarreta, Kang-In Lee; Vedat Muriqi.
JefeBet Prediction
It is difficult to predict a winner in this match because we are talking about two teams that are not usually consistent when it comes to obtaining good results. Despite this, the visiting team will arrive to this match while going through a great moment, and after having defeated a rival like Villarreal with predominance.
On the other hand, Espanyol needs to add points to its record if it does not want to remain close to the relegation zone. Indeed, the team will have to adopt an offensive approach that will allow it to be accurate in front of its opponent’s goal. Either way, this has been achieved in their 5 most recent matches, scoring at least one goal in each of them.
Taking into account what was previously mentioned, this match’s emotions will surely be reflected in the final score.
Prediction: Over (ESP 1-1 MAL).
