The 2024-25 edition of La Liga is back in action with another round of matches this weekend as Mallorca take on Manuel Pellegrini's Real Betis side in an important encounter at the Estadi Mallorca Son Moix on Saturday. The two teams have experienced contrasting fortunes this season and will be determined to win this game.
Mallorca vs Real Betis Preview
Real Betis are in 12th place in the La Liga standings and have not been at their best this season. The Andalusian outfit slumped to a damaging 3-1 defeat at the hands of Deportivo Alaves last week and will need to bounce back in this fixture.
Mallorca, on the other hand, are in sixth place in the league table and have stepped up to the plate over the past year. The hosts suffered a 4-0 defeat against Villarreal in their previous game and have a point to prove this weekend.
