Mallorca – Albacete, Segunda Division Prediction

Mallorca has had a very strong season and got to the top 6, but poor results have recently deprived the team of Albacete’s fourth position, although they have made 2 losses in the last two games. The only difference between the 4th and 5th in the standings is that the 5th will host the first match, which is the advantage for the other team. But Mallorca can now get a good result, because in their home games they are extremely stable and strong.

Albacete is a very interesting team that practices a slightly more specific style. The team is quite unpredictable in their visits, as in Segunda they recorded most of their losses away from home, so their visits were sometimes a problem, which is why we expect them to be more cautious in the first game and try not to concede goals, even more so that the referee the game is not the favorite of Albacete.

Mallorca is a team that almost does not allow goals at home. They have a total of 13 clean sheets from their 21 home games and only 2 losses overall as one was from Albacete, but it was a game played long time ago. The shape of the team is great now. Since it is the first match and both teams know each other very well and have strong defenses, and because we expect the guests to be very defensive and not to take extra risks, we think there will not be many goals. Prediction – Under 2.5 goals at 1.60.

Mallorca have only allowed 5 goals in their last 15 away games

8 of the last 12 away games in Albacete have completed under 2.5 goals
