Prediction published on 16/03/2024, 00:18  by Sridhar in LaLiga Predictions

Granada will hope to ride on their historical supremacy over Mallorca when the sides meet in La Liga this week. This match will take place at the Mallorca Son Moix Stadium in the Balearic Islands on Saturday. Ahead of this round, the hosts are 15th with 27 points, while the visitors are 19th with 14, although Granada has a game in hand. Mallorca lost 1-0 to Barcelona in their last league game, halting a two-match winning sequence. Although they start this round five points above the relegation zone, recent vibes in the home camp are positive. They managed to put their league troubles aside and make it to the final of the Copa del Rey. While that is a reason to celebrate, they need to make it count in the league and move away from the danger zone.

Granada have won only twice in the league this season and are ten points behind safe places. Intriguingly, one of their two victories came against Mallorca in the reverse fixture, when they won 3-2. That wasn’t a flash in the pan, as Granada have won their last five La Liga matches against Mallorca. Granada need that confidence here, as they come into this match after losing 5-1 to Villarreal and 3-2 to Real Sociedad. Their problems seem to start at the back, as the visitors have conceded 57 goals in their 27 matches so far. To make matters worse, they have failed to win a single game on the road this season. Granada’s record of 12 losses and two draws in 14 away competitive matches makes it difficult to back them for a win, despite their good record against Mallorca.
