Girona take on the visitors Mallorca in the round 6 match of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Saturday, September 23rd at Estadio Municipal de Montilivi (Girona).
Last season, Girona looked very impressive, finishing in the middle of the La Liga table and ranking among the top 5 highest-scoring teams. Over 38 La Liga matches, "white and red" scored 58 goals, with only Barcelona, Real Madrid, Atletico, and Villarreal scoring more. Girona's attack remains strong, and they have had an almost perfect start to the season. In the first round, they secured one point against Real Sociedad (1-1), followed by four consecutive wins in the league against Getafe (3-0), Sevilla (2-1), Las Palmas (1-0), and Granada (4-2). As you can see, in just five La Liga rounds, Catalan teams have played Under 1.5, and they haven't suffered any losses yet. I believe this trend will continue in their home match against Mallorca.

Last season, Mallorca can also consider successful, as they even finished higher in the La Liga table than Girona. However, in the new championship, the "red and black" started much worse than their opponent, earning nearly three times fewer points than the Catalans. Yes, they managed to take points from Athletic Bilbao and Las Palmas, and even secured a sensational victory over Celta Vigo. However, Mallorca has already suffered two defeats: to Villarreal (0-1) and Granada (2-3). Notably, in the match against Granada, Over 1.5 was scored in the first half. Typically, matches involving "the islanders" are not the most entertaining. But in this prediction, I'm considering Girona, which will impose its style on the opponent and either dominate or force them to open up.
Stopping the current Girona team is nearly impossible. Therefore, even on their own, the hosts are likely to hit Over 1.5. Considering the playing style of the Catalans, who often focus on attacking and sometimes neglect defense, I won't rule out a goal from Mallorca either. I wouldn't be surprised by a convincing home victory, such as 2-0 or 3-0, or even a 2-1 scoreline or a 1-1 draw. I believe in at least two goals in this match. However, I strongly disagree with the idea of Mallorca winning. Right now, at the start of the season, the teams are in slightly different forms and conditions. Therefore, I'm placing a bet on 1X + Over 1.5 goals, which played out twice in the head-to-head meetings between Girona and Mallorca last season (2-1 and 1-1).
Prediction for the match: Girona not to lose and over 1.5 scored goals.
