On Monday night, Sevilla and Real Mallorca clash at the Sanchez Pizjuan in La Liga as both teams look to move up the table.
Sevilla have recorded back-to-back winsThe Andalusians have recorded two straight La Liga wins over Getafe and Las Palmas while keeping clean sheets in both victories.
Los Rojiblancos’ recent good form has moved them up to 13th place in the table, nine points clear of the relegation zone.
Their recent games in the Spanish top flight have been relatively low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in five of their last eight outings.
Sevilla’s recent home record in La Liga is poor. They have won just two of their last 11 matches in the Spanish top flight.
Quique Sanchez Flores’ team has now conceded at least two goals in five of their last seven Liga matches on home soil.
The Andalusians have lost just one of their last six meetings with Real Mallorca.
Mallorca’s poor run continued against Real Madrid last time outThe Islanders’ recent poor run of form was extended last time out with a 1-0 home defeat against La Liga leaders Real Madrid.
The result means that Real Mallorca has now won just one of their previous five outings in all competitions.
Javier Aguirre’s team are in 15th place in the table, six points clear of the relegation zone, and three points adrift of their opponents.
Mallorca have been poor travellers recently in the Spanish top-flight, failing to win in their last 12 matches.
The visitors’ recent away games in La Liga have been relatively low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in nine of their previous ten matches on their travels.
What am I backing?There isn’t much between these two teams in terms of Liga position, and I expect this to be a close and low-scoring encounter. Therefore, the bet I am backing is under 2.5 goals scored.
