Mallorca take on the visitors Valencia in the round 9 match of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Saturday, October 7th at Estadi Mallorca Son Moix (Palma de Mallorca).
Mallorca are proving to be a pleasant surprise in terms of productivity and entertainment in their matches at the start of the current season. They rarely play low-scoring matches and seldom leave the field without scoring a goal. As a result, after eight rounds, the goal difference for the islanders stands at 11-14. On average, the team scores more than one goal per game and concedes almost two. These are excellent statistics to consider for betting on Over 1.5 total goals in their upcoming match. In their last three matches involving the red and blacks, at least two or three goals were scored even in the first half. In these matches, Mallorca shared points with Barcelona (2-2) and Rayo Vallecano (2-2) and also lost to Girona in a shootout (3-5).

Valencia's goal difference after eight rounds of the championship is, of course, not as wide as that of their opponent, but it's still quite normal for a bet on Over 1.5 - 9:10. The bats score and concede more than one goal per game at the start of La Liga. This is no longer the same Valencia that struggled at the bottom of the table for most of the previous season. Yes, they have more losses than wins so far, but in only two out of eight matches in La Liga involving this team, fewer than two goals were scored. Among Valencia's recent matches, we can highlight a heavy defeat to Betis (0-3), a decisive victory over Madrid's Atletico (3-0), and a hard-fought draw away against Almeria (2-2).
In La Liga, bookmakers often overestimate the odds for Over 1.5 total goals, especially in matches where two average teams face each other. And we often take advantage of this. Both Mallorca and Valencia have already shown this season that they can score goals, even against top teams. Both teams have gone Over 1.5 goals in their matches five times out of eight rounds in La Liga. I wouldn't be surprised if one of the teams alone scores two goals in this match. However, a hypothetical 1-1 draw also looks like a decent outcome for this match. My prediction is Over 1.5 total goals.
Prediction for the match: Over 1.5 scored goals.
