Real Sociedad vs Mallorca 

 

Real Sociedad currently sits at the 3rd seed while Mallorca sits at the 12th seed. Real Sociedad aims to extend their winning streak this coming Sunday against Mallorca who is also looking to bounce back. Mallorca has lost 3 games in their past 4 games and has just recently won against Levante. Real Sociedad’s Oyarzabal has carried his team this whole season in La Liga and is not stopping until he gets to his goal. While in LaLiga, only one other team has scored three or more goals from corner situations in a single season, and that team is Mallorca. 

 

Real Sociedad is in the form they sought to be in La Liga, winning three home games at Reale Arena. They have beaten Mallorca 8 times in their past 14 meetings. They are looking to make their match up this Sunday another home game win and another win to add to their previous faceoffs. Real Sociedad has beaten Mallorca 3 times in La Liga without allowing them to have a single goal. They look to break the curse of winning against Mallorca 4 straight games without Mallorca scoring a goal. Mikel Oyarzábal looks to carry his team once again and add more goals made to his stat sheet against Mallorca. He is also the second top scorer, 7 goals made in the competition after Karim Benzama, 9 goals made. 

 

With Real Sociedad having better defensive and offensive players against Mallorca, it would be an upset if Mallorca wins this game, or even ties the game. As Mallorca’s best players, Daniel Jose Rodriguez and Fernando Nino whose expected goal value per 90 minutes is 1.49 and 1.54 respectively, will really need to step-up against a top team like Real Sociedad. Mallorca’s goals from the corner are still currently the best in LaLiga, and is where Daniel Jose Rodriguez and Fernando Nino shined.  

 

Real Sociedad is looking to demolish Mallorca and should win the Match Result and end the game with a score of 2-0, where the odds are currently high at 1.44 and 6.30 respectively at 747.live. 

 

Real Sociedad will once again take on Mallorca in the La Liga, this time in San Sebastian, 

at Reale Arena on October 17, 2021, at 3:00, am (GMT+8).
