Mallorca vs Alaves Prediction & Betting tips
On Saturday afternoon, the Spanish relegation cracker between Real Mallorca and Alaves is on the program at the Son Moix. Especially at the home club it is currently five to twelve, because it is very restless both inside and outside the lines.
Real Mallorca:
It was of course already clear in advance that after two promotions in a row Real Mallorca was facing a very tough season in LaLiga. The brave island club initially did surprisingly well, but now after three defeats in a row it still seems to be the main candidate for a return to the Segunda Division. In particular the 1-0 defeat of last weekend against direct competitor Espanyol. The red shirts certainly do not play badly, but in the end it’s all about the results. Behind the scenes, too, there is rumble, because this week CEO Maheta Molango was able to pack his bags. The Swiss was thus presented with the bill for keeping out winter reinforcements, which trainer Vicente Moreno had explicitly asked for.
Real Mallorca is going through a sporting valley, but will be happy that it can count on the support of its home crowd again this weekend. No less than seventeen of the total of eighteen points were achieved in the own Son Moix. In addition, Moreno has almost his entire selection at his disposal. In particular, club top scorer Ante Budimir is a player to keep an eye on, because not so long ago the Croat had an important share in the 4-1 victory over Valencia with two goals. Real Mallorca can use its goals well, because in no fewer than five of the last six league matches, the island club did not score.
Alaves:
With only one defeat in the last five games and a provisional fourteenth place, Alaves is again on the road to retention this season. However, the Basques are not allowed to relax, as they are still thirteen points away from the magical 40-point limit – the moment when you are normally permanently safe. Last week’s 2-1 win over fellow countryman Eibar has given the team of coach Asier Garitano a lot of confidence.
One of the goal scorers in last week’s Basque regional derby was Lucas Perez, who is having a great season with nine goals and four assists. The striker has in the meantime played in the spotlight of FC Barcelona, which due to frequent injuries may make an additional purchase outside the transfer period. It is of course difficult to estimate how a player deals with such transfer problems, but according to attack buddy Joselu, Perez has no ears at all about an interim departure. If it’s up to Garitano, Perez just stays with Alaves, because he really doesn’t have any worthy substitutes in the ranks.
