Leganes welcome Mallorca to the Estadio Municipal de Butarque in La Liga on Saturday. The hosts have enjoyed an unbeaten start to their league campaign on their return to the top flight, while Mallorca have endured a winless run.
Leganes registered a 2-1 home win over Las Palmas last week, thanks to second-half goals from Juan Cruz and Enric Franquesa, before drawing goalless at Real Valladolid earlier this week.
Mallorca, meanwhile, got their campaign underway with a 1-1 draw with reigning champions Real Madrid before suffering a 1-0 loss to Osasuna last week. Their poor form continued earlier this week with a goalless draw against Sevilla.

Leganes vs Mallorca Prediction
Leganes are unbeaten in their first three games of the season, which is their best start to a La Liga campaign.
Mallorca, meanwhile, have also drawn two of their three league games this season but lost at Osasuna last week. They have failed to score in their last two games, though.
Both teams are playing for the third time in a week, so fatigue could be a factor. Considering that and their recent history, a low-scoring draw could ensue.
