Mallorca preview: Improving Majorcans
It has been a tumultuous start to the season for a Real Mallorca side that had been trying to push for the top seven or eight and the European spots this year. The Majorcans have begun to start improving of late, though.
Jago Arrasate, who has been under immense pressure, leads his Mallorca side into an impressive 3-1 defeat of Sevilla at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan last weekend, coming from a goal down at half-time.
Levante preview: Entertaining Levante
Following their automatic promotion back to the top-flight of Spanish football last season, Levante have been entertaining to watch thus far with their nine matches having consisted of 30 goals in La Liga.
They do, though, come into this one on the back of returning from the October international break with a 3-0 hammering at the hands of Rayo Vallecano at Estadio Ciutat de Valencia last weekend.

Mallorca vs Levante prediction
Jago Arrasate was initially tasked, when brought in in the summer of 2024, with expanding the style of football at Mallorca, but they remained underwhelming. However, they come into this one on the back of finally showing some signs of cutting edge in the final third as they now come up against one of the more entertaining teams to watch in La Liga and so both teams scoring would appear a good bet for this one.
