Real Mallorca

Mallorca have experienced mixed results in recent weeks, sitting in 8th place in La Liga. The 3-2 victory against Las Palmas showed that Mallorca need to work on their defensive alignment if they want to improve. 

The Mallorcans dominated the game but a sloppy penalty turned the game around before Johan Mojica netted the winner in the last minutes of the game. 

Although Jagoba Arrasate’s team is known for relying on a compact defensive block, this hasn’t been the case in recent weeks. 

Following a goalless draw against Athletic Club, Mallorca suffered back-to-back 1-0 defeats to Deportivo Alavés and Atlético de Madrid. These results make the upcoming clash with Valencia a must-win encounter, as they have been one of the most underperforming teams in the league this season. 

Iván Cuéllar, Abdón Prats, Takuma Asano, and Toni Lato will be sidelined, while Antonio Raíllo is awaiting the medical green light. Vedat Muriqi will not play either, as he is serving his suspension following a red card.

Valencia

Valencia’s season has been nothing short of disastrous, as the team languished at the bottom of La Liga for several weeks before securing an emotional 4-2 victory over Real Betis. The win lifted Los Che to 18th place, but they remain in the relegation zone.

Valencia have two games in hand, postponed due to the DANA storm. The victory against Betis was highly emotional, as Real Betis fans refrained from celebrating and instead held tributes to honour the DANA victims.

Valencia also won against CP Parla Escuela in the Copa Del Rey, with Pepelu scoring the only goal in the 20th minute. They will now face SD Ejea in the next round, with the date for the clash yet to be announced.

Injuries continue to plague Valencia, with Rafa Mir, Mouctar Diakhaby, and Maximiliano Caufriez all ruled out.

Real Mallorca vs Valencia Prediction

• Prediction: Real Mallorca to win
• Odds: 2.00 (22Bet)
• Score Prediction: Real Mallorca 2-1 Valencia

Valencia might have won their last two encounters, but this is likely a fluke rather than a trend. 

Both wins were secured at the Mestalla, and now Los Che face the challenge of traveling to Son Moix for a Friday night fixture. Given the aftermath of the DANA storm, which has significantly impacted the fanbase, substantial traveling support is improbable.

Mallorca are famous for their defensive solidity, but recent weeks have seen the team struggling to meet expectations as they continue to concede goals. Their last clean sheet dates back to a month ago, when Mallorca won against Rayo Vallecano (1-0). 

However, playing at home typically bolsters their performance, as the familiar surroundings of Son Moix often serve as a fortress for Los Bermellones.

Real Mallorca vs Valencia Betting Tip

• Pick: Dani Rodriguez to score
• Odds: 7 (22Bet)

Muriqi’s absence makes the fixture a little tougher for Mallorca. However, Dani Rodríguez has proven to be a capable contributor in front of goal, registering three goals and three assists in 14 matches this season.

He won’t be alone with the support of Sergi Darder, whose passing accuracy always helps in counter-attacks. Considering Valencia’s fragile backline and the creative partnership between Rodríguez and Darder, this match presents the perfect platform for Rodríguez to step up in the absence of his usual attacking partner.
