Mallorca will invite Leganes to Estadi Mallorca Son Moix in La Liga on Saturday. The visitors are 19th in the standings, with an eight-point lead over the last-placed Real Valladolid. Los Piratas are eighth in the standings with 43 points, the same as seventh-placed Celta Vigo.
The hosts returned to winning ways after two consecutive defeats last week, recording a 2-0 away triumph over Real Sociedad. Cyle Larin broke the deadlock in the 20th minute, with Sergi Darder providing the assist. Darder himself got on the scoresheet in the 47th minute.
Los Pepineros are winless in their last five league outings. After a 1-1 draw against Osasuna last week, they lost 1-0 at home to Barcelona on Saturday. An own goal from Jorge Sáenz in the second half condemned them to their 15th loss of the league campaign.

Mallorca vs Leganes Prediction
Los Piratas registered their first win of the month last week and also kept their first clean sheet in 2025 in that win. They are unbeaten in their last four meetings against the visitors, recording three consecutive wins while keeping clean sheets, and are strong favorites.
Vedat Muriqi is a key absentee for the hosts, while Manu Morlanes and Robert Navarro are also not expected to recover in time for this match. Takuma Asano faces a late fitness test.
Los Pepineros suffered their fourth loss in five games last week and failed to score for the first time since February. They will look to improve upon that record. They are winless in their last five away games, suffering four consecutive defeats.
Dani Raba was booked last week and will serve a suspension due to the accumulation of yellow cards. Borna Barisic and Enric Franquesa are long-term absentees, while Matija Nastasic faces a late fitness test.
Los Piratas have lost just one of their eight home games against Leganes and are unbeaten in this fixture's last three home meetings. With that in mind, and considering their better recent form, we back the hosts to eke out a win.
