An important duel in the bottom section of the La Liga, with both Mallorca and Deportivo Alavés experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic “six-pointer” with the home team placed 18th and the visitors in 14th place.
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 900 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.
Mallorca form and stats
Mallorca have played 12 La Liga games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 5-2-5 (wins-draws-losses). With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Mallorca to get some points in this home game.
L. Junior was the last player to score a league goal for Mallorca and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Mallorca haven't scored in 281 minutes.
In their previous game, the manager V. Moreno Peris led his Mallorca to a defeat in the La Liga match away at Espanyol. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Iberostar Estadi. Before that game, the home loss against Real Valladolid with the scoreline 0-1.
Manolo Reina had a busy but productive day in the Espanyol match. Despite making six saves the loss could not be prevented.
