Maiorca-Espanyol is a match from matchday 12 of the Spanish La Liga: where to watch it, the probable formations and the prediction.
MAIORCA – ESPANYOL | Friday 21:00
Maiorca and Espanyol, the two teams called to open the 12th round of the Spanish La Liga, are separated by just two points in the standings in favour of the hosts. They also come from an unexpected and prestigious victory against Valencia at the Mestalla. In short, three points of absolute value for the Mallorcan side who, perhaps, if they manage to give a little continuity to their results, then they might even think of something other than a simple salvation. The conditions to do well, it is clear, seem to be all there, especially for that character shown in the last outing against Gattuso’s team, when the victory came with a resounding comeback, almost, we would say, for what had been the Valencians’ domestic path. In short, they undoubtedly need continuity, which could come with a victory against Espanyol.
An Espanyol side that is not having the most serene moment despite only losing once in their last five. But much more was expected from the Catalans against Elche at home: instead a draw came, reeled in by the visitors in the final minutes, demonstrating that they very often lack the concentration needed to get through the game. A flaw that could also cost dearly in the match against Mallorca.

The Prediction
Certa continuity for the home team. They are looking for their second win in a row this season, which could perhaps point to something other than mere salvation. In short, a challenge that the hosts should be able to win.
