Deportivo started this season very well and they are actually in mid-table with 44 points. The hosts will be looking for their thirteenth win today. Their problem is that a lack of funds means new arrivals at Depor are usually on loan or free transfers, while some key players departed in the summer. However, coach Lotina has built a solid, consistent team over the last few years.

In the recent season, Mallorca have played like a team that finished with a flurry and fought their way into ninth place at the end of the campaign last season. They play very well and are in 5th place with 59 points . They have won fourteen matches from eighteen at ONO Estadi with the impressive score of 40:15 and are the biggest surprise of the league. Another key for Mallorca to maintain their winning mentality is the stability of the goalkeeper position. On the other hand, their away form isn’t so impressive. They have picked up only 16 points away from home.
Mallorca needs more the victory – I will try away win.
