The action in Spain’s top flight continues on Monday this week, as Sevilla and Mallorca lock horns. There is little between the teams in the league standings at this stage of the campaign, with both likely needing a couple more victories to ensure their status in the top-flight.
La Liga Preview
It has been another challenging season in Spain for Sevilla, with the side remaining at risk of suffering relegation to the season tier. However, they come into this round of matches sitting nine points clear of the drop zone, and they have seen a positive upturn in form after winning each of their last two in La Liga.
A victory this week will likely rule out any risk of suffering relegation to the second tier, while it could also see them end the round in 12th. Sevilla’s most recent victory was recorded on the road against Las Palmas, landing a 2-0 victory away from home. Youssef En-Nesyri opened the scoring just before the half time break, before Dodi Lukebakio added a second in the closing seconds.
Mallorca appear to be at greater threat of relegation at this stage of the season, as they sit just six points clear of the relegation places. The Spanish side have won just six of their 31 matches this season, and they have suffered defeats on 12 occasions. However, it has been draws that have been their biggest issue this term, with no side having played out more ties.
Mallorca have lost two of their last four matches in La Liga, with just a single victory having been recorded over that period. They come into this round following a battling performance against Real Madrid last Saturday, but they were still edged out by a 1-0 scoreline.
Sevilla vs Mallorca Head to Head
Mallorca landed a 1-0 victory in the reverse fixture between these teams this season. That success ended a six-game unbeaten sequence for Sevilla, with the hosts recording four victories over that period. They have also won four of their last five home matches against Mallorca in the league.
Sevilla vs Mallorca Prediction
There is little separating these sides in the current standings, and that could make it challenging to predict the outcome this weekend. However, Sevilla’s excellent home record against Mallorca could be the key factor, meaning that the preference is for a home win.
