Latest news
Mallorca
📣 Jagoba Arrasate spoke to the media following the tough 2-1 defeat to Real Madrid: "It's really hard, mainly because of the result and how it unfolded. It's true that here you know you're going to suffer, but that's normal. We held our own in the first half, but the second half was more challenging, especially when we needed to push forward and surprise them. But when we had a point in our pocket, losing it is very painful. I think we need to turn the anger we feel now into energy for Sunday's match: there are two games left, and we still have something to fight for. It's difficult to stay optimistic right now because this is a big blow, but that's normal. We need to recover and play a good game on Sunday with our fans."
📢 Sergi Darder also shared his thoughts on the team's performance: "Well, it was a match where we knew we'd have to endure to take anything from it. We knew that even if we went into halftime with a goal, it wouldn't be enough; we needed a second one. That's exactly what happened. I think the game we played today was very good, and we took a lot of positives from it. Even if we had drawn today, it wouldn't have helped us much in terms of qualifying for Europe; we need to win on Sunday. We know Sunday's game is a home 'final': it's our last home game of the season, so we need our supporters."
❌ In Mallorca's injury list are Takuma Asano, Chiquinho, Manu Morlanes, Robert Navarro, and Abdon Prats. Toni Lato's participation in the match remains doubtful.
Getafe
🔗 José Bordalás and his tactical ideas have long been a significant part of La Liga. The classic 4-4-2 formation allows Getafe to bypass the need for positional play in attack. The foundation of his model is a straightforward vertical game with an emphasis on aerial duels. This season, Mauro Arambarri's role is particularly intriguing. The Uruguayan midfielder operates as a 'number eight', and a significant portion of Getafe's creativity stems from him. In the current La Liga campaign, he has scored 9 goals, making him the club's top scorer.
🔝 Ahead of the recent clash with Athletic (0-2), the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez honored Allan Nyom. The Cameroonian defender played his 100th match for Getafe last week. The 37-year-old received a commemorative jersey from club president Ángel Torres. This season, Nyom has been a rotational player (18 partial appearances) but remains an important figure in the locker room.
❌ In Getafe's injury list are Juanmi and Álex Sola. Due to suspensions, Djene and Luis Milla will be unavailable for the upcoming league fixture.
🟨 Prediction for Yellow Cards
Getafe's matches this season have been highly charged, particularly when it comes to the average number of bookings - 5.6 per game. Their head-to-head clashes with the "Cinnabar" team also follow a similar pattern, averaging 5.2 bookings per encounter. Given the season's climax, it's highly likely we'll witness a game rich in fouls. Our focus is on the following event - total yellow cards over 4.5.
⚽️ Prediction for Goals
This season's encounters involving both sides have been marked by a scarcity of goals: Mallorca averages 2.1, while Getafe averages 1.9 per match. Notably, each team has a low average of goals scored: the "Islanders" at 0.9 and the "City" team also at 0.9. In 6 of their last 8 head-to-head meetings, no more than 2 goals were scored. We'll go with the following event - total under 2.5 goals.
🚩 Prediction for Corners
Mallorca significantly lags behind their opponents in terms of corners this season - 3.9 compared to 6.3. Meanwhile, José Bordalás' side shows contrasting numbers: 4 against 3.8. It's important to note that the "City" team excels at set pieces and consistently aims to earn them. We predict a win for Getafe on corners with a handicap (+1.5).
Editorial Prediction
High-scoring football and Jorge Bordalás' Getafe are almost mutually exclusive concepts. The team hasn't found the net in five consecutive matches, and Mallorca are also struggling in the attacking department. Given that head-to-head encounters between these sides have never been known for goal fests, we're backing under 2.5 goals.
