Mallorca vs Real Betis Predictions

• Mallorca are unbeaten in ten home matches in all competitions
• Real Betis have failed to win any of their last nine La Liga away matches
• Betis’ only away win in seven came against fourth-tier side Villanovense in the Copa Del Rey

Mallorca might be too strong for Betis

Mallorca may be 11 points worse off than Real Betis in La Liga, but the balance of both sides’ recent form suggests they may come out on top when the pair meet on Saturday.

The hosts have avoided defeat in their last ten home matches in all competitions and secured their place in the Copa Del Rey semi-finals with a sensational 3-2 win over La Liga leaders Girona at Son Moix on Wednesday.

Mallorca’s performance in that game was exceptional, holding on for the victory despite being reduced to ten men for the final 23 minutes of the 90, and a repeat of that showing would surely see them take three points against the inconsistent Green and Whites.

Green and Whites’ travel sickness to continue

Real Betis started the season well but have lost their way somewhat, especially on their travels where they have failed to win any of their last nine La Liga away games.

In fact, their only away win in seven matches across all competitions came via a narrow 2-1 victory over fourth-tier side Villanovense in the Copa Del Rey and their last two road fixtures have seen them lose to strugglers Celta Vigo in the league and mid-table Alaves in the cup.

Their away form is a worry and it may not be about to get any better against a side on a high following their brilliant win over Girona.
