To keep their dreams of making it to Europe’s second-tier competition alive, the hosts have to pick up a win here.

Last term, Espanyol staged a last-ditch attempt at securing European football, a feat which they accomplished having finished seventh on the league standings. In an interesting tale of events, their then-manager, Rubi now calls the shots at Real Betis. Could he instill the same belief in this team?

Betis look sick in all departments, winning only one of their last eight games and managing only seven points in as many encounters. Sadly, only the Athletic club have been poorer in that period. Could there be a sudden upturn of events?

Real Betis vs Mallorca Team News

Betis were out to secure just their second away win of the season against relegation threatened Leganes last weekend, but Rubi’s side weren’t quite up to the task in a dreadful contest at Butarque.

Chances were few and far between at both ends as the teams played out a 0-0 stalemate; the only real drama occurring deep into stoppage time as Borja Iglesias saw red for bundling over a member of Lega’s backroom staff on the touchline. The 27-year-old will sit out this Friday’s clash at Benito Villamarin as a consequence.

Betis’ stuttering away form means they remain lodged in mid-table, but they will fancy their chances of getting a precious three points on the board against Mallorca on Matchday 25; the only side that Los Verdiblancos have managed to beat on their travels so far this term.

Rubi’s charges ran out 1-2 winners at Son Moix in November, and the Balearic Islander’s visit to Benito Villamarin this Friday represents a major step down in terms of home oppositions for Betis, following a ruthless run of fixtures in Andalusia.

Cucho Hernandez’ first goal for Mallorca ensured that Los Bermellones returned to winning ways against Alaves at Son Moix last weekend, but the 1-0 victory is likely to provide little more than short term relief for Vicente Moreno’s side.

Mallorca have daunting fixtures upcoming against Barcelona and in-form Villarreal, and they head to Andalusia this weekend with just a single point on the board from 11 away games this term.

Last season’s Segunda Play-off winners lost twice as many matches as they won on their travels in the second tier, so it’s perhaps no surprise that they have toiled so badly outside of Palma in the top flight.

Mallorca’s results at Son Moix are giving them a fighting chance of survival, but they remain 18th in the table despite last week’s win, following 17th placed Celta Vigo’s 2-2 draw at Real Madrid.

Betis vs Mallorca Predictions

Real Betis have now failed to win any of their last four games as they were held to a draw on the road at Leganes at the weekend. A return to home soil against Mallorca gives them a chance to get back to winning ways which they should be able to do with the visitors yet to win away in La Liga this season.
