Osasuna vs Mallorca Prediction & Preview

Preview

Osasuna welcome Mallorca to Estadio El Sadar on Tuesday, May 14th, for their La Liga matchday 36 encounter. The hosts, currently sitting 13th in the league with 40 points, are desperate to turn around their recent form, having failed to win in their last five matches (0-4-1). In fact, Jagoba Arrasate Elustondo's men have only managed to take one point from their previous five games.

Mallorca, on the other hand, come into this match with a slightly better record, having earned four points from their last five outings (1-3-1). Javier Aguirre Onaindía's side secured a crucial 1-0 win over Las Palmas in their previous game, which should give them some momentum heading into this clash.

The two teams have a relatively even head-to-head record, with Osasuna winning two of their last five meetings, Mallorca winning two, and one match ending in a draw. When they last faced each other on December 21st, 2023, Mallorca ran out 3-2 winners at Iberostar Estadi.

Osasuna's recent struggles are reflected in their average goals scored per game, which stands at just 1 goal. They concede an average of 1.7 goals per match, with this number rising to 1.75 when playing at home. Mallorca, meanwhile, score an average of 0.6 goals per game and concede 0.7 goals per match, with these numbers staying relatively consistent whether they're playing at home or away.

In their last outing, Osasuna drew 2-2 with Athletic Club, while Mallorca's previous match saw them beat Las Palmas 1-0.

Bet

Considering the recent form and stats of both teams, I would recommend a bet on Under 2.5 goals at odds of 1.44. Both sides have struggled to find the net consistently, and with Osasuna conceding an average of 1.75 goals per game at home, it's likely that this match will be a low-scoring affair.
