Mallorca - Real Betis predictions

The home team are slightly stronger as far as most online bookies are concerned, but the difference is by no means insurmountable. Both a stalemate and a victory for Real Betis are still on the table.

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

Mallorca’s painful defeat in their previous away match could have been seen from a mile away. They were facing Villarreal as visitors, so betting predictions never gave them much of a shot. The home team took an early lead which culminated in a 4:0 loss for Mallorca.

Real Betis prepare for Saturday on the back of a shocking home defeat. They were seen as firm favourites to land three points against Deportivo Alavés but the game did not go as planned. A first-half draw turned into a big-margin 1:3 defeat n no time and Los Verdiblancos fans have every right to feel disappointed.

Mallorca fans at Estadio Iberoamericano 2010 have seen a lot of concessions lately – 7 in the previous three matches. Hopefully, we’ll see some better play from their defenders.

With 6 goals in Los Verdiblancos’s net over their three most recent home games, online bookmakers are not giving them great chances of ending this game one with a clean sheet.

The 30 points Mallorca have earned so far brought them to be 6th on the current La Liga table. They’re coming up on a difficult matchup, though, and there’s plenty of time in the season for things to change.

With 5 points standing between them and a Europa League qualification as we move into round 21, Betis’s goals are quite clear. Unfortunately, it’s hard to feel optimistic about their short-term profits – they’re heading into an unfavourable matchup at Estadio Iberoamericano 2010.

Looking at the previous time these squads clashed in this season, it’s no surprise that Mallorca are the favourites. They managed to grab a narrow win playing as visitors, and it’s quite reasonable to expect them to do the same as the hosts.

A string of injuries put a large chunk of the visitors’ lineup out of contention. They’ll have to make do without Youssouf Sabaly, Pablo Fornals, Aitor Ruibal, Fran Vieites, Ricardo Rodríguez, Giovani Lo Celso. Given that they were already underdogs anyhow, this puts them at a severely disadvantaged position.

An Over 2.5 Goals is a great bet if you like staying on the safe side. The betting value for this market is strong compared even to the 2.45, which makes this an easy betting prediction to make.
