Mallorca hosts Albacete in the first leg of the Spanish La Liga2 promotion playoffs semifinals. The match will be played on Thursday, June 13th at Estadio Iberostar (Palma de Mallorca)
Mallorca, which used to be a very strong frequenter of Primera Division, has not long pleased its loyal fans with the games in the elite. In fact, the Islanders have taken root in the second Spanish league, from where they will try to get out soon, having begun their way “to the sun” from the semifinal confrontation with Albacete. Where, in my opinion, the home team will become the dominant link.

By the way, Mallorca got to the playoffs exactly because of very decent results in the home field. The Islanders managed to gain as many as 15 home victories in 21 matches, where, in particular, such well-known names were defeated: Almeria (1:0), Sporting Gijon (2:1), Zaragoza (3:0), Real Oviedo (1:0), Deportivo La Coruna (1:0), Osasuna (1:0) and so on... And, as we see, the teams didn’t score more than 3 goals in any of those matches!
As for Albacete, this team did not appear in the elite much longer than Mallorca. Last time it happened 15 years ago. And, in my opinion, the Clockwork Cheese may well leave the upcoming playoff tournament after sparring with Mallorca. In any case, it will be extremely difficult for the visitors to achieve a positive outcome in this away game. I believe that Albacete came to the Balearic Islands exclusively to get a draw while putting an obvious emphasis on defensive tactics.
Prediction for the match: Mallorca to win with +0.5 handicap and Under 3.5 goals scored
