Mallorca vs Granada CF Prediction (16.03.2024)

On Saturday afternoon, Real Mallorca and Granada meet at Son Moix in a game that could be pivotal in the fight for survival in La Liga.

Last time out, Javier Aguirre’s team suffered a 1-0 defeat against the reigning Spanish champions Barcelona. The result means that the home team has won just one of their last four games in La Liga.

The game in Catalonia was another low-scoring game for the Islanders, as their last three Liga games have produced under 2.5 goals.

Mallorca are currently in 15th place in the Spanish top-flight table, five points clear of the relegation zone.

Their recent home record is inconsistent, as they have won two, lost two and drawn one of their last five matches in La Liga.

Aguirre’s team has been involved in several low-scoring La Liga games lately, as eight of their last 11 games have produced under 2.5 goals.

A 3-2 home defeat by Real Sociedad last time out means that Granada have failed to win in their previous eight games in La Liga. In fact, the Andalusians have claimed just three draws and suffered five defeats in the eight-game winless run.

The poor recent run of results has seen Granada fall ten points adrift of safety. However, they do have a game in hand on 17th place Celta Vigo.

Although their last two La Liga games have been high-scoring, six of their previous nine matches have produced under 2.5 goals.

Granada’s recent away form in the Spanish top-flight has been atrocious, as they are winless in 14 matches, having picked up just three draws and suffered 11 defeats.

The visitor’s biggest problem away from home has been finding the net, as they have failed to score in six of their previous nine matches.

Mallorca has not been in the best of form lately. However, they tend to be decent on home soil, while Granada doesn’t travel well. I can see this being a well-balanced and low-scoring clash, so the bet I am backing is under 2.5 goals scored.
