Mallorca vs Dep. La Coruna Prediction & Betting tips
CA Osasuna and Granada CF have been returnees for weeks in the Spanish LaLiga. The third climber will be determined definitively only this weekend. In the playoff final second leg, there will be a duel between Mallorca and La Coruna! Both teams look back on a long history in the Spanish football league and hope for a comeback in La Liga. Deportivo La Coruna opened the door to promotion with a 2-0 home win in the first leg!
The players of the RCD Mallorca are challenged accordingly and need in the second leg in front of a home audience a convincing performance against the Galicians, to be able to eliminate this mortgage yet. In the regular season, the two teams occupied only the places five and six in La Liga2, but were able to prevail in the play-off semi-final against the supposedly stronger teams, however.
Due to the first leg result Mallorca must take the scepter from the beginning and hopes with the home strength on the march into the first division. The game begins on Sunday evening at 8 pm at the Son Moix Stadium in Mallorca.
Mallorca:
Mallorca is certainly not immediately associated with football in Germany, but the elf from the favorite destination of many Germans was for several years an integral part of the Spanish LaLiga. In the season 2012/13, however, there was the descent to cope. The club could never really recover from that. In 2016/17 even the transition to the third division had to be started. An absolute worst case, since the rise from the league three is anything but easy – but Mallorca managed the direct return under head coach Victor Moreno.
The run also continued in La Liga2. Mallorca finished fifth in the regular season with no less than 42 games. Especially the home strength was impressive throughout the season. In the domestic Son Moix Stadium could be won 15 of the 21 home games in the league. Only twice (against Albacete and Malaga) suffered a home defeat.
The defeat against Malaga was on 8 December 2018 – in the calendar year 2019 Mallorca is unbeaten at home. In the regular season, there have been eight wins and two draws in the last ten home games. Also in the playoff semi-final Mallorca could set the course for finals at home. With 2-0, the home game was won against Albacete and despite the 0-1 defeat in the retour managed to progress.
Given the strong home record between Mallorca and La Coruna a prognosis on the home side’s victory is quite an interesting option. The initial situation is anything but positive despite the good home record, but Mallorca can count on a sold-out house. Even days before the game, the nearly 23,000 tickets were sold out. Personnel Vicente Moreno will have to change and replace the red-locked Pedraza. The 23-year-old Ghanaian Idrissu Baba is expected to take his place on the six.
La Coruna:
In recent years, the Galaters, who were still represented in the Champions League at the beginning of the 21st century, developed into a lift team. In 2010/11 and 2012/13 each had to accept the descent from La Liga; both times succeeded in the immediate return to the Spanish football upper house. The feat of coach Josep Luis Marti’s side could do just that for the third time in a row this season.
After relegation last season, La Coruna was right at the beginning of the season right at the top of the table. Too many points (17 in 42 games) ensured that La Coruna had to shiver for the playoff spot until the end. As Table Six, the team saved themselves in these playoff games and presents itself in this “Crunch-Time” from the best side. Against Malaga (third in the table) both home and away games were victorious. Thanks to the 2-0 victory in the first leg against Mallorca Deportivo La Coruna has now won five of their last six competitive games. The momentum certainly speaks for the Galicians.
Over the entire season, the defensive was outstanding for the Galicians. With just 32 goals conceded in the regular season, Deportivo La Coruna has the second-best defensive in the league. The few goals are also the own game philosophy owed, because the main focus is clearly on their own zero. Due to the starting position on Sunday evening, this tactic will be even clearer.
