Villarreal vs Mallorca Betting Tips - BTTS

Mallorca face their third successive road trip on Monday after back-to-back 3:0 defeats against Pontevedra and Real Madrid in the Copa del Rey and La Liga, respectively.

Despite those results, Mallorca have enjoyed a largely productive campaign which sees them flying high in La Liga. Currently sixth in the division, the Islanders sit behind Villarreal on goal difference only. 

An entertaining side to watch this season, four of Mallorca´s last six games saw both teams score.While Arrasate´s side have failed to score in their last two road trips, a high-scoring outcome with both team scoring seems likely, especially when we consider Villarreal´srecord at this venue. The hosts have seen BTTS in 10 of their last 11 home league matches. Going back even further, only five of their 29 previous La Liga matches at the Ceramica did not see both team get on the scoresheet.

Villarreal´s recent form has been shaky, with just one win in their last seven outings, while they failed to keep a clean sheet in their last seven games. 

With Mallorca bagging five wins from their last eight away La Liga games, the visitors will have every reason to feel they can take something from Monday´s fixture and I´m confident they can can score in a likely competitive contest.

Ultimately, I like the chances of Mallorca avoiding defeat in a game where both teams are likely to score.
