Latest football match prediction: Mallorca vs Elche
It's undeniable that Mallorca are having a disappointing first half of the season, having only earned 14 points from 15 matches and dropping to 17th place in the standings, just two points ahead of 18th-placed Girona.
Last season, "The Pirates" finished 10th in La Liga, just four points behind the European qualification spots, but now they are battling to avoid relegation in the bottom half of the table.
Jagoba Arrasate's team entered this match with a three-game unbeaten streak, drawing against Osasuna and Real Oviedo in La Liga, sandwiched between a Copa del Rey victory against Numancia.
Mallorca have only lost one home game in La Liga this season, and they will host Elche, who have yet to win an away game in the 2025-26 season.
Mallorca have only won 11 of their 40 encounters with Elche across all competitions, and they haven't beaten them since November 2017.
Elche are unbeaten in their last seven meetings with Mallorca, including a 1-0 victory in the first leg of the 2022-23 season.
However, five of those matches ended in a draw, and a closely contested game is predicted this weekend, even though Elche have been in better form since the start of the season.
With a record of four wins, seven draws, and four losses after 15 rounds, Eder Sarabia's team has earned 19 points – enough to place them 9th at the moment.
Los Franjiverdes are one of the bright spots in La Liga this season, and they enter this match after two consecutive wins: against Quintanar del Rey in the Copa del Rey and against Girona in La Liga.
The 3-0 victory against Girona was considered Elche's most impressive performance of the season, and coach Sarabia hopes the team will maintain that form this weekend.
