Mallorca is playing amazingly this season and with their consecutive positive results they are the cleare favorites to grab the three points and elevate in the table.
Bookmaker Ratings prediction two: Total Goals – Under 2.5 – 1.77
Both sides have had trouble scoring goals consistently this season, with Elche scoring just 20 goals in 25 games and Mallorca scoring less than a goal per game on average. Also, both clubs have a history of keeping things tight at the back, which raises the possibility that few goals will be scored in this match.
Mallorca
Mallorca has accrued 35 points from 25 games and is presently ranked ninth in La Liga. They have won three of their past five games, demonstrating recent strong play.
