Match Analysis

Vallecano comes into this fixture with a strong recent run, having secured two wins and a draw in their last three matches. Their victory against Celta and the clean sheet against Las Palmas highlight their defensive capabilities, although they have conceded goals in most games. On the attacking front, Vallecano has been moderately effective, averaging 1.2 goals per game in their last five matches. Their recent performances demonstrate a balance between attack and defense that could be pivotal against Mallorca. Mallorca, on the other hand, has experienced a mixed bag of results, suffering two losses in their last three outings. A defeat against a formidable Real Madrid and another against Getafe at home have dented their momentum. They did manage a narrow victory over Valladolid, but their scoring record remains concerning, averaging just 0.6 goals per match in the last five. Defensively, they concede an average of one goal per game, which could be problematic against a Vallecano side keen on capitalizing on their home advantage.

Final Prediction

Vallecano's recent form and robust home performance provide them with a distinct edge over Mallorca in this encounter. Their ability to score and maintain clean sheets will be crucial, especially given Mallorca's recent struggles in both attack and defense. A key factor to watch during the game will be Vallecano's defensive solidity, which could again play a decisive role in securing a home victory.
