Real Valladolid will be looking to get back on track this weekend, as they have gone three without a win in La Liga. Mallorca will be the visitors on Sunday, as they look to end a five-game winless run to secure their safety in the Spanish top flight.
La Liga Preview
It will be a crucial showdown for Valladolid in La Liga this weekend, as they look to avoid getting dragged into the bottom three in the standings. They come into the fixture sitting 16th overall, but they are just a point clear of the relegation places. Their recent form would also be a huge concern, as they have gone three without a win, while they have registered just a single success over their previous five in the league.
Valladolid suffered a second straight defeat in their previous fixture, as they were swatted aside by Real Madrid away from home. The reigning champions scored four in the opening half, before further efforts were netted in the second period.
Mallorca is one of a number of sides that will still have their eyes on the relegation places, as they are just six points clear of the bottom three. However, a return to winning ways could see them climb up to ninth in the Spanish top flight standings. But, they will need a change in fortune to achieve that, as they have gone five without a win.
Over that period, they have suffered three defeats. Meanwhile, they have picked up just two points from the previous 15 available. Last weekend, they played out an uneventful 0-0 draw against Osasuna. They will need to show much more adventure in the final third this weekend.
Real Valladolid vs Mallorca Head to Head
Valladolid has picked up three victories in the previous five meetings between the sides. Over that period, they have registered three home wins. Mallorca won the earlier clash between the sides this term by a 1-0 scoreline.
Real Valladolid vs Mallorca Prediction
We expect this to be a very cagey fixture between the two sides, with each of the last two only seeing one goal scored. We can see the same once again this weekend, but we would side with Valladolid claiming the 1-0 success.
