Tenerife-Maiorca is a match valid for the round of 16 of the King’s Cup. Streaming, likely lineups, predictions.
Mid-table in the Segunda Division, Tenerife, which has many past years in La Liga, hosts Mallorca in this round of the King’s Cup. And according to the bookmakers the match, for the host lineup, is far from easy. But we objectively have another idea.
A match that surely the visiting islanders must take with due consideration, but one cannot take into account what is an important category gap – as it is in all leagues – and what is the momentum of the team going to play away. Which in the last five games has lost only once (against Real Madrid at the Bernabeu making Ancelotti’s team sweat the proverbial seven shirts) and in the last round drew at home against Celta Vigo. You will say, whatever, but what result is that? Yet Rafa Benitez’s lineup is strong, and so is Mallorca, so we are sure that there will be no problem in passing the round.
Also because at this point, whether you want it or not, a thought to the Cup everyone does. Especially a lineup that is doing reasonably well in the league – 19 points in the standings, 4 lengths ahead of the red zone – and that dreams big, perhaps to go beyond what are their own limits. In short, in our humble opinion, Mallorca will also win easily.
The prediction
That said, the challenge that will close out the King’s Cup Tuesday should unlock as early as the first half. Mallorca is favored and will probably start at full speed to try to put the match downhill. A match that shouldn’t provide much of a spectacle, but the outside blow is almost assured.
