Valencia vs Mallorca Prediction

Valencia form

Valencia look in good shape before their upcoming match, as they seek to remain unbeaten. They started by taking out Osasuna in a 1-2 win, before a 2-2 draw followed against Elche. Their most recent outing resulted in a 1-1 draw in a hard fought encounter with Sevilla. Valencia won four of their previous six La Liga games at the Estadio Mestalla. They both drew and lost once, as they conceded four and scored 13 goals.

An optimal season could perhaps see Valencia qualifying for Europe but so far, they look well underway to a nice mid-table finish.

Mallorca Form

In their previous three games, Mallorca drew 1-1 with Elche, then lost 0-1 against Sevilla and 1-0 against Real Sociedad. In their last six away matches in the La Liga, Mallorca won twice, while also recording two draws. They endured two defeats in this run, with a scoreline from these matches saying six goals conceded and six scored.

Mallorca were expected to enter a dog-fight to avoid relegation, and their current position in the La Liga only underlines why.

Both Valencia and visitors Mallorca seem to struggle just a wee bit much right now, with keeping a clean sheet. We go out on a limb here and suggest that, both teams will find the back of the net.

Valencia took 12 points from their last six encounters with teams from the bottom half of the La Liga table. This amounts to three wins after scoring 14 times and conceding six. Mallorca scored four goals and conceded eight in their last six encounters with teams in the top half of the La Liga. This lead to one win and four points.
