Prediction Mallorca vs Deportivo Alavés 2025/2026 season – Betting Tips for La Liga on 27/09/2025

High-stakes Balearic Battle: Mallorca Host Alavés in Round 7

Mallorca return to Son Moix under pressure, sitting 19th after six matches and still searching for their first win of the La Liga campaign. The home side have been fringed by frustration rather than flair — five goals scored against eleven conceded reflect a squad that is creating chances but failing to turn dominance into results. Their recent string of fixtures reads like a cautionary tale: narrow defeats to the big boys and a handful of draws have left the islanders with just two points. There is heart in the numbers — decent shot volume and solid attacking intent — but a lack of cutting edge and a porous rearguard that has yet to register a clean sheet.

Alavés Arrive with Momentum and a Balanced Profile

Deportivo Alavés travel to Mallorca buoyed by steadier form and a healthier mid-table cushion. Sitting 10th with eight points from six games, Alavés have shown resilience away from home, grinding out results such as a recent 1-1 draw at Getafe and a previous victory at Athletic Club. Statistically they bring a more balanced output: six goals scored and six conceded, a better points return, and an ability to manufacture chances with higher averages in overall and dangerous attacks. Their recent performances suggest a team capable of stifling opposition spurts and striking on the counter, making them a dangerous proposition at Son Moix.

Both teams have left clues in their last outings. Mallorca went down narrowly to Real Sociedad thanks to a tight 1-0 result where Antonio Raíllo stood out, while Ander Guevara impressed for Alavés in their 1-1 draw with Getafe. The head-to-head between these sides also hints at a tight contest; the most recent clash ended 1-1 in March, a result that underscored how evenly matched these teams can be when tactics and margins matter most.

Tactically, expect Mallorca to push for control on home turf, relying on shot volume and wide support, whereas Alavés will likely counter with disciplined defending and quick transitions. With both teams producing chances but also leaking goals, the game shapes up as one that could be decided by a single moment of precision or error.

Betting suggestion: Based on the teams’ recent form, goal output and defensive records, the most compelling market is the goal market: Both Teams To Score — Yes. The data points to open, competitive football where Mallorca’s inability to keep clean sheets and Alavés’ consistent scoring profile make BTTS a logical and value-backed selection.
