Sevilla vs Mallorca Prediction: Expect a win for the home team

In the 21st round of the Primera Division, Sevilla will face Mallorca. Sevilla continues to have staffing problems, but despite this, the Red and White are the favorites in the pairing and the odds on the victory of the future hosts is falling.

Sevilla made a bid for the Spanish Cup but lost to Osasuna on January 25 and dropped out of the tournament. After that setback, the southerners beat Elche 0:3 at home and, with the same result, lost to Barcelona. Seville finished 16th on Matchday 21 with 21 points, two more than Cádiz and a formidable opponent for Sevilla, considering their geographical position. Sevilla has one of the worst home stats in the division, namely, 16, +2=5-3, 9:15 goal difference.

The team has 7 points more than Sevilla and holds quite a comfortable 10th position in the Spanish championship standings. In theory, Mallorca could even compete for a place in the European competition, but we strongly doubt that with 40+ points, the Islanders will compete in the top 6. The main task of Mallorca is to maintain a place in the elite of Spanish soccer. Mallorca's away defeat record is 50%, +3=2-5, 8:12 goal difference. It should also be noted that Mallorca has lost three previous matches in La Liga. In this case, note that in the last round, Mallorca beat the reigning Spanish champions, Real Madrid.

Sevilla has a 100% result in home games after the break for the 2022 World Cup, i.e., three wins in three games. Mallorca has suffered three defeats in their last three away games in La Liga. Also, note that Mallorca for Sevilla is quite a convenient opponent; the islanders have not beaten the Red and White in five previous head-to-head encounters, three of which Sevilla won. It is also worth paying attention to the tournament position of the opponents. Mallorca has nothing to worry about, and we doubt that the islanders are considering winning the European Cup. At the same time, Sevilla is only two points away from Cadiz and the relegation zone. As for the total, we doubt that this match will be productive.
