With 40 points and a lead rarely seen at this stage of the season, Mallorca has secured its place in La Liga for another season. It has been an important season for the islanders, driven on by striker Muriqi (who will be absent through injury) and his regular goals.
Valencia, on the other hand, are struggling to have a trouble-free season. Once again, the hosts are fighting for survival and are currently just one point above the relegation zone. It is an almost embarrassing situation for a team with such appeal and value, a truly incredible situation that they just cannot seem to put behind them. They need a win, and we are convinced that in this case, motivation can make all the difference. Of course, with a win, Mallorca would move right up to the European places, but it is equally true that these were not exactly the season’s objectives for the visitors, who were aiming for what they have already achieved, namely securing a comfortable position in the table so they don’t have to think about anything bad. And we all know what we mean in this case.
In short, on their fifth attempt, Valencia should take all three points. Fifth attempt, yes, because the team playing their home games at Mestalla has failed to get the better of a team that plays to win, without too many frills, in their last four encounters.

The prediction
Valencia will win, no question about it. These three points are too important for the home side, who are trying to get out of a difficult situation in the standings, unlike the visitors, who finished their league campaign at the end of March. In short, a victory, in a match with less than three goals in total, for the home side led by former Roma player Sadiq: since his arrival in the winter transfer window, the team has improved offensively.
