Girona vs. Mallorca: Match Prediction
The Catalans have been unable to win in the league for three months, suffering 7 losses and drawing 4 times. It's unclear how they plan to end this long winless streak, and given the current psychological state of the players, it will be challenging for them to secure a victory in this match. Girona has not won at Montilivi in five consecutive La Liga matches (2 draws and 3 losses), with Betis and Celta being the strongest opponents in this series.
The islanders have strong motivation at the end of the season, as they have a great chance to qualify not only for the Conference League but also for the Europa League. Mallorca has a good record against teams ranked 15th and lower in the league table: in 10 matches this season, they have suffered only one defeat (5 wins and 4 draws).
My prediction – Mallorca to win or draw
