Mallorca will be bidding to make it back-to-back victories in La Liga when they welcome Girona to Visit Mallorca Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
The home side, who are currently ninth in the table, will enter this contest off the back of a 2-0 victory at Rayo Vallecano, while Girona suffered a 1-0 loss to Celta Vigo last time out.
We say: Mallorca 2-1 Girona
Both teams will fancy their chances of causing problems on Saturday, and it should be an open and entertaining contest. Mallorca were excellent against Rayo last time out, though, and we believe that the home side will have enough quality to secure another three points in this contest.

The only two teams with 100% records at this stage of the La Liga season will lock horns at Bernabeu on Saturday afternoon, with league leaders Real Madrid welcoming second-placed Real Betis.
Defending champions Real Madrid were 3-1 winners over Espanyol last time out, while Real Betis also continued their perfect start to the campaign with a 1-0 success over Osasuna on August 26.
We say: Real Madrid 2-1 Real Betis
This is an incredibly difficult match to call, with Real Betis a tough nut to crack. The visitors can also take confidence from their recent record at Bernabeu, but Real Madrid are grinding out wins at an impressive rate, and we believe that a tight match will just end with Ancelotti's side claiming the points.

Two teams expected to be in the hunt for a top-four finish in La Liga come the end of the season will lock horns on Saturday evening, with Real Sociedad welcoming Atletico Madrid to the Reale Arena.
Real Sociedad, who are eighth in the table, will enter the contest off the back of a 1-0 victory over Elche, while sixth-placed Atletico were winners by the same scoreline at Valencia in their last match.
We say: Real Sociedad 1-2 Atletico Madrid
Real Sociedad have found it difficult against Atletico in their recent meetings, and we are struggling to back the hosts with any real confidence here. Atletico were strong in their last game against Valencia and should have enough to pick up another three points on Saturday evening.

Barcelona will be looking to record a third straight La Liga victory when they continue their 2022-23 campaign against Sevilla at Estadio Ramon on Saturday night.
The Catalan outfit will enter the contest in Seville off the back of a 4-0 win over Real Valladolid, but an off-colour Sevilla suffered a 2-1 defeat to Almeria in their last match.
We say: Sevilla 1-3 Barcelona
Sevilla's defensive problems are a concern ahead of this match, and we are finding it really tough to back the home side to get anything from the contest. Barcelona have so much attacking talent, and we are expecting Xavi's side to make it three straight wins in relatively comfortable fashion considering the difficulty of the match.
