Real Sociedad vs Mallorca Predictions

• Mallorca have lost their last 12 visits to Real Sociedad
• Real Sociedad have won every meeting between these two in San Sebastian to nil since 2011
• The visitors have lost each of their visits to La Liga’s top seven so far this term

Sociedad to book final place

Real Sociedad are hoping that Tuesday’s Copa del Rey semi-final can change their fortunes after losing three of their last four games. The hosts have seen their Champions League hopes fade after that run, both losing to PSG and losing ground on the top four. However, they did beat Mallorca 2-1 on the road earlier this month and they’ll hope to build on that in this cup clash.

The first leg between these two finished 0-0, which should suit Sociedad. Getting Mallorca back to their own ground gives the hosts a brilliant chance to get through, having won each of their last 12 home encounters with them. They’ve won every meeting between the sides here since 2011 without conceding, while the visitors have struggled against La Liga’s top teams this term.

Not only have Mallorca lost home and away to Sociedad in the league this term, they’ve been beaten in each of their six visits to the top seven so far, scoring only once across those matches.

While Sociedad are coming off a tough run, this fixture looks perfectly set up for them. They can win this in 90 minutes, sealing a spot in the Copa del Rey final.
