Mallorca vs Real Valladolid Predictions and Free Tips from our expert tipsters when the teams go head-to-head in Spanish La Liga on Saturday, 7 January 2023.
Mallorca were in great form before the World Cup break, and somehow, they are yet to get back into their groove after the competition resumed. Their immediate objective would be to find their form back, and it helps that they are at home this weekend.
Meanwhile, Valladolid are a team that were promoted to the top flight only at the end of the previous season, and as expected they are struggling to cope with the intensity here. Moreover, they are possibly one of the worst teams on the road.
It has been three years since these two teams locked horns with each other, and surprisingly Valladolid have been the better team over the course of their h2h history.
In fact, we would have to go back to 2013 in order to find the last game at this venue where the hosts defeated this opponent.
While the h2h clashes say a different story, recent form clearly picks Mallorca as the favorites to secure the three points on offer this Saturday.
It is true that they are not yet back to their full swing. But do note that before the break they were a force not to be tangled with. Moreover, they lost just thrice at home, and these losses came against some of the best teams in the league like Barcelona, Sevilla, and Betis.
In addition, Valladolid have a 100% losing record on the road barring a single draw and a win.
Valladolid are in such struggling state that they let in two or more goals in five of their past six away league games. At the same time Mallorca are determined to secure a win at any cost this weekend. Surely chances are high that we will see the hosts scoring at least twice.
The hosts have displayed decent defense over the course of the season, and Valladolid are yet to show signs of life in away fixtures. This one is a little improbable.
Mallorca are in a strong position to secure the three points this weekend. Opponents Vallaodolid are struggling since the start of the season, and they run into the wounded and determined hosts. Mallorca to Win at 2.00 odd is a great pick.
On that same note, Over 1.5 Team Goals by Mallorca is another great complement, placed at 2.00 odd.
