Real Sociedad vs Mallorca Prediction and Betting Tips | October 19, 2022
Real Sociedad will host Mallorca at the Reale Arena on Wednesday (October 19) in La Liga.
The hosts have enjoyed a largely solid campaign and are pushing for the UEFA Champions League spots. They picked up a 2-1 win over Celta Vigo last time out. Asier Illarramendi opened the scoring at the half-hour mark with his first goal since 2018 before Igor Zubeldia netted the winner early after the restart. Sociedad are fifth in the standings with 19 points from nine games.
Mallorca, meanwhile, have had mixed results this season but have particularly struggled since their return from the international break. They sit just outside the drop zone as they head into the second quarter of the season. The visitors were beaten 1-0 by Sevilla and will feel gutted to have come away with nothing after being the more dominant team in attack.
The visitors are 12th in the league table with nine points.
