Oviedo vs Mallorca prediction
Real Oviedo have struggled badly since re-appointing Luis Carrion as manager back in October, and they look every bit a relegated side right now as they sit 20th in La Liga having collected just nine points to date.
Their latest outing saw them lose 2-0 away at Atletico Madrid last Saturday; they have failed to find the net in any of their last four games, and they are winless in their last eight games across all competitions.
It's also been a difficult season for Mallorca, who currently find themselves hovering just above the relegation zone, and only four points above their hosts in this fixture.
Jagoba Arrasate's side let a two-goal lead slip against Osasuna last weekend, conceding twice late on to draw 2-2, but they were offered some respite to their league troubles with a 3-2 win at Numancia in the Copa del Rey on Tuesday.
Both these sides are enduring difficult times right now, but Mallorca are at least showing a little more about them in the attacking areas, so we favour the visitors.
