Mallorca vs Atletico Madrid Prediction
Atletico Madrid have flattered to deceive so far this season and have been disappointing on the European front. Los Colchoneros have plenty of work to do to catch up with their title rivals and will need to be at their best to secure a win in this fixture.
Mallorca can pack a punch on their day and have troubled Diego Simeone's side in the past. Atletico Madrid are the better team on paper, however, and should be able to win this game.
