Mallorca
Under the guidance of Jagoba Arrasate, Mallorca is one of only two teams yet to secure a victory since the start of the current La Liga season. Last Wednesday, Mallorca suffered a 0-1 defeat against Real Sociedad, marking their fourth loss in six league matches. The club's winless run in La Liga has now reached nine games (3 draws, 6 losses). With two points, Mallorca sits in 19th place on the table, only ahead of Girona, who trails solely on goal difference.
- Both teams have scored in 7 of Mallorca's last 10 league matches.
- At least 2 goals have been scored in 8 of the club's previous 10 La Liga encounters.
- Mallorca has won with a handicap (+1.5) in 21 of their last 22 La Liga matches.
Predicted lineup for Mallorca (5-3-2)
Leo Roman – Pablo Maffeo, Martin Valjent, Antonio Raillo, David Lopez, Toni Lato – Antonio Sanchez, Pablo Torre, Omar Mascarell – Vedat Muriqi, Mateo Joseph.

Alaves
The team has experienced all possible outcomes, with two wins, two draws, and two losses in six league matches. Alaves also has an equal number of goals scored and conceded in La Liga – six each. In their last outing, the club secured a point away against a strong Getafe (1-1), extending their scoring streak in La Liga to four matches. With eight points, Eduardo Coudet's side occupies the 10th position in the standings.
- The Basques have scored in 8 of their last 9 La Liga games.

Match Prediction: Mallorca vs. Alaves
Mallorca sits at the lower end of the table, still searching for their first win of the current La Liga season. Overall, the club's winless streak in La Liga stands at nine matches, six of which ended in defeat. Recently, even home support has not been as helpful as before: Jagoba Arrasate's team has not won in 6 of their last 7 home league matches (3 draws, 3 losses).
Alaves, on the other hand, is known for its resilience, suffering just 2 defeats in their last 9 La Liga games while securing 4 wins and 3 draws. The team puts up a fight against many opponents, even away from home: evidence of this is that the Basques have earned at least 1 point in 8 of their last 10 away league matches (3 wins, 5 draws). Furthermore, Alaves is unbeaten in their last 4 league encounters with Mallorca (1 win, 3 draws).
I believe the visitors will once again avoid defeat. Prediction: Alaves to win or draw
