Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
After sharing the spoils with the likes of Granada, Espanyol, and Atletico Madrid, Villarreal will be looking to record their first win of the season when they take on Mallorca at Visit Mallorca Estadi on Sunday. The Yellow Submarine have yet to find their best form, but the good news for Unai Emery is that key midfielder Dani Parejo has overcome his injury. Since Samuel Chukwueze is the only absentee in the away team, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the visitors.
Los Bermellones, on the other hand, aim to bounce back from a 2-0 loss to Athletic Club. Mallorca failed to impress in the San Mames defeat, and seeing that Dani Parejo is back for Villarreal, we are tempted to put our money on Unai Emery’s charges. Both Antonio Raillo and Angel Rodriguez are out of contention with injuries for the home side.
