Mallorca vs. Alaves: Match Prediction
Mallorca is struggling at the bottom of the table, having yet to win a match this La Liga season. Their overall winless streak in the league stands at nine games, six of which ended in defeat. Even home support has waned recently, with Arrasate's side failing to win 6 of their last 7 home league matches (3 draws, 3 losses).
Alaves, on the other hand, is known for its resilience, having suffered only 2 defeats in their last 9 La Liga encounters, with 4 wins and 3 draws. The team often challenges opponents away from home, evidenced by earning at least one point in 8 of their last 10 away league matches (3 wins, 5 draws). Additionally, Alaves has not lost in their last four league meetings with Mallorca (1 win, 3 draws).
I believe the visitors will manage to avoid defeat once again. Prediction: Alaves to win or draw
