Mallorca vs Celta Vigo Prediction & Betting Tips (13 January)

Mallorca, 14th overall, could gain some air in the relegation zone in the event of a victory since Cadiz CF, 18th and first relegation, is only 3 points behind. A victory over Celta Vigo, 17th by 2 points, is on the agenda for Javier Aguirre's team. Muriqi's teammates 4 goals, undefeated at home since August 18, have just beaten Sevilla FC 1-0 and Osasuna 3-2 on their island on December 21. The island club bounced back well after its narrow defeat in Madrid against Real 1-0 in the league by qualifying for the 1/8 finals of the Copa del Rey at Burgos CF 0-3 on January 7.

Since this failure, the Galicia club has signed 2 interesting successes against Betis Sevilla 2-1 and at Amorebieta 2-4 in the Copa del Rey on January 7. On the other hand, away from home, in La Liga, Celta Vigo does not shine since it has 2 draws and 5 defeats in its last 7 trips. New counter-performance at the Mallorca Son Moix stadium?

As for Celta Vigo, they have either kept a clean sheet or failed to score in five of their previous six away encounters at this elite level of the domestic game.
