Both teams sit next to each other in the league standings and are actively competing for the coveted sixth spot, which offers a chance to play in European competitions.
The hosts haven't been extraordinarily prolific at the start of the season. They focus on building from the back, having conceded just eight goals in nine matches. Their attack has been remarkably consistent, with Mallorca scoring at least one goal in eight of their nine games this season.
The visitors are on a five-match unbeaten streak. Rayo Vallecano have been solid defensively, conceding nine goals despite 10.6 xGA. Offensively, they've sometimes scored from unlikely opportunities, netting 11 goals with an xG slightly above 9.
Last season, one of the encounters between these teams ended in a 2:2 draw, and we anticipate a similar result this time around. The clubs are indeed evenly matched in terms of quality and style, making it unlikely that either will emerge victorious within the 90 minutes.
