Mallorca – Real Sociedad: match preview
Mallorca currently find themselves in the relegation zone in the La Liga table. After 25 rounds, they have collected 24 points and sit in 18th place. The gap to 17th is just one point, meaning nothing has been decided yet and the survival battle remains wide open. However, they have lost their last three matches and have managed just one victory in their previous five. If they are to retain their top-flight status, they must start winning and put an end to this dismal run.
Real Sociedad did not begin the season particularly well, but their form has improved significantly. They are now tenth in the La Liga standings. After 25 matches, they have amassed 32 points and trail the European qualification places by five. Over their last 13 matches, the Basque side have suffered only one defeat, recording four draws and winning the rest. Their current momentum is impressive, and I believe they are capable of pushing for a European spot.
Probable line-ups
- Mallorca: Roman; Maffeo, Raillo, Valjent, Mojica; Costa, Morlanes; Luvumbo, Darder, Virgili; Muriqi
- Real Sociedad: Remiro; Aramburu, Martin, Caleta-Car, Gomez; Gorrotxategi, Herrera; Guedes, Soler, Oyarzabal; Oskarsson
Prediction
We are in for a highly intriguing contest, and I expect a tense encounter that could produce several goals. I suggest backing over 2 total goals in this match.
