Venue: Estadio de Son Moix (Palma de Mallorca).
Mallorca vs Osasuna Preview
newly promoted team into a breath of fresh air in La Liga this season and the third has a reason to be satisfied with the start of each. Two of them met here with Mallorca play host Osasuna and it will be interesting to see how they shape up against each other.
The visitors had much more consistent team so far but Mallorca has impressed on the Son Moix. All ten of their points came in front of their own fans with Eibar, Espanyol and most recently Real Madrid all fell to defeat in Palma. The loss of the week in what felt like a relegation six-pointer in Leganes is a reality though and Vicente Moreno will know that the hard work done against Los Blancos will be largely canceled is that they surrender to beat here.
Muchlike Mallorca, Osasuna is also a side who really rely on their home form to keep them out of the Segunda Division and they remain unbeaten at El Sadar this term after an impressive 3-1 victory Sunday over Valencia. They are already competitive on the road as well and only the Madrid giants could better their record of just two league defeat so far this term.
We are unlikely to see a big surprise in the choice here. Mallorca will continue with the formula that has delivered some good performances at home so far but they have a little wasteful in front of goal with only Ante Budimir having netted more than once this term. Osasuna can consider the rotation a little more after playing on Sunday night with Marc Cardona potentially come to give them more of a presence in attack.
Prediction
Real Mallorca have won their last two home games in LaLiga, recording consecutive clean sheet against Real Madrid and Espanyol in the process.
The hosts will be hoping to get back on track after an unexpected 1-0 loss to struggling Leganes on weekends.
Osasuna have won two of their last three league games, but do not take more than one point on the road since the opening day.
Prediction: Mallorca 1-1 Osasuna
