Sevilla vs Mallorca Prediction: Match Preview and Analysis | La Liga

The Monday night fixture closing Matchday 25 of La Liga features two teams that, despite being in 13th and 7th place, are separated by just three points: Sevilla and Mallorca. At the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán Stadium, Garcia Pimienta's side aims for a second consecutive victory after their emphatic 4-0 away win against Valladolid (with a brace from defender Sanchez and goals from Romero and Lukebakio). A win would not only allow them to catch up with Mallorca in the standings but also reignite their hopes for a top-six finish. For Sevilla, this match is an opportunity to salvage their season, as they have already been eliminated from the Copa del Rey by Almeria. Meanwhile, Jagoba Arrasate's Mallorca has been one of the biggest surprises of the season, sitting just one point behind the 6th place that currently grants access to the UEFA Conference League. However, to remain in the race for European qualification, they need to break their poor away form, as their last away victory dates back to December 21st (0-1 against Getafe). This match is crucial for the battle for 6th place, especially considering that Spain might secure four or five Champions League spots next season, which could shake up the league standings.

Sevilla's Shape & Key Statistics

The tight La Liga table this season has allowed teams like Sevilla, who had a poor start, to stay in the race for a top-six finish. Their form has improved significantly, with 2 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss (against Barcelona) in their last five games.

At home, Sevilla has picked up 18 of their 38 points (5 wins, 3 draws, 4 losses). Before their 1-4 defeat against Barcelona, Garcia Pimienta's side was on a five-match unbeaten streak at home (2 wins, 3 draws).

Mallorca's Shape & Key Statistics

Mallorca has managed to end a five-match losing streak in all competitions with a draw against Osasuna and a win over Las Palmas. Their improvement has been largely thanks to Vedat Muriqi, who has scored 3 goals in the last two games.

Despite these signs of recovery, Mallorca continues to struggle away from home, having lost 7 of their last 10 away matches across all competitions. In La Liga, they remain inconsistent, with 5 away wins and 6 losses, and no draws so far this season.
