Latest football commentary Mallorca vs Rayo Vallecano
Mallorca are doing impressively with four wins, two draws and three defeats after nine rounds of La Liga, currently sitting seventh on 14 points, level on points with Athletic Bilbao. The Pirates have a solid defence with only eight goals conceded, but they have struggled to score, scoring just nine goals, showing their limited attacking power.
Jagoba Arrasate's side had three straight wins at the end of September, but went into the international break on the back of a 2-1 defeat to Espanyol. Mallorca have two consecutive home games against Rayo and Athletic, which promises to be interesting, especially as they have not finished higher than ninth since 2011-12. Remarkably, Mallorca have not lost to Rayo in La Liga since November 2021 and won 2-1 when they met last season.
Rayo Vallecano have also made a good start, with 13 points from nine games and are currently eighth, one point behind Mallorca. Inigo Perez's side have won three, drawn four and lost two, scoring 11 goals and conceding nine, showing solid defence. Rayo are on a five-game unbeaten run, with wins over Osasuna and Real Valladolid, and draws with Atletico Madrid, Girona and Leganes.
Although Rayo have struggled against Mallorca, losing four of their last five meetings, they did win 1-0 away at Mallorca in the Segunda Division in September 2020. With both teams starting well, this match promises to be an exciting one, with the result likely to end in a draw or in favour of the home or away team.
