Espanyol - Mallorca predictions

Beating Mallorca will not be easy, but we believe Espanyol are more than capable of doing so. The matchup is somewhat balanced, after all, so all three possible outcomes are still on the table.

The task ahead is well-known to the visiting team. Defeating Espanyol on their own field would be a major accomplishment, and doing so is always challenging.

Espanyol will not be too disappointed with their latest away defeat (Real Betis). It was a game they were expected to lose on a big margin anyway. But they still kept it alive for the first 45 minutes and gave their rivals a run for their money, with one goal deciding the entire match.

Mallorca are here after a well-deserved triumph over Real Valladolid. Mallorca were behind during half-time, but a surprise goal in the second half allowed them to equalize and eventually secure a narrow 1:2 win.

With more than 5 conceded goals over their latest 3 fixtures, Espanyol’s performance leaves something to be desired. That said, savvy punters could be able to exploit this – think BTTS or Over 5 Goals markets, for example.

Mallorca are doing quite well in the most recent part of the La Liga. They are on a 3 – game string of victories and will be looking to keep the streak going.

With just 2 points between them and the relegation zone, Espanyol can’t be too happy with how the season started. To make matters worse, earning new points in this match is highly unlikely.

Mallorca have a difficult match ahead of them, and bookies agree that the 3 points could end up in anyone’s tally. They’ve placed at 6th on the table so far, which leaves them 2 points behind one of the Champions League qualifying spots. Of course, the season just started, so it’s too early to talk about qualifications.

Our advice is to stay on the safe side and go for the Over 2.5 Goals market. It’s reliable, very probable, and available at odds of 1.80 if you use the Pncl sportsbook.
