Mallorca vs Girona Predictions

• Girona’s La Liga matches have seen an average of 3.4 goals per game
• Mallorca won 3-2 when these two sides met earlier this year, but Girona won the reverse league fixture 5-3
• Mallorca have seen BTTS in their last four, but they went to extra-time and penalties in midweek

Girona to edge high-scoring clash

Girona have regrouped after their surprise title push faltered, with La Liga’s surprise package turning their focus to making the Champions League. They’ve done incredibly well to make it into second place at this point of the campaign, but they’ve suffered a few setbacks of late.

The visitors have lost three of their last four trips, conceding at least three goals in each. That includes a 3-2 Copa del Rey defeat to Mallorca, who secured a spot in the final this week. Mallorca did need extra time and penalties to get by Real Sociedad, so they could tire towards the end of this one and open the door for Girona to run away with it.

The visitors have seen 3.4 goals scored per game in La Liga this term, with their previous clash with Mallorca this term seeing them claim a 5-3 victory. Expect Girona to get involved in another end-to-end clash, but with the visitors winning 16 of 17 games with teams outside the top seven, they should prove too strong in the end.

Girona should turn this into an end-to-end encounter and the fact that Mallorca have seen both teams score in their last four suggests they can play their part. As a result, over 2.5 goals looks well-priced between two sides who have had defensive issues all season.
