Mallorca and Real Sociedad are set to face off midweek in Spain. Our prediction for the match on September 18 explores whether either team can recover from recent losses.
Mallorca vs Real Sociedad prediction: A boring tie in Palma
Key stats
- Mallorca vs. Real Sociedad: Considerations show that both teams are averaging just 0.60 goals per game in La Liga this season.
- Three of Mallorca’s last four home games in the league have ended in draws.
- Real Sociedad have won only one of their last six competitive matches.
Our score prediction: Mallorca 0-0 Real Sociedad
Both teams have struggled in attack so far. The visitors are the stronger team and had a better performance against Real Madrid over the weekend, but they are still adjusting after losing key players in the summer and might find it hard to break through a solid home defense.
