Despite only securing two victories this season, Mallorca is still above the relegation zone, thanks to nine draws out of 17 games. They are currently on a good run, having gone five games without a loss in all competitions. Last weekend, Javier Aguirre’s team had a 0-0 draw against Almeria. Although the visitors were closer to a win with an xG of 1.76 compared to the home team’s 0.29, Mallorca struggled with scoring, resulting in the team from the Balearic Islands only gaining a point.
Osasuna holds a slight edge over Mallorca, positioning them as a mid-table team this season. The team, led by Jagoba Arrasate, had been on a six-game winless streak until they claimed a 1-0 victory over Rayo Vallecano in the last La Liga round. While neither team performed exceptionally in that game, Osasuna managed to leverage a single good attack to secure all three points and climb the table. This victory should boost Osasuna’s confidence, improving their prospects for the upcoming match against Mallorca on Thursday.
Mallorca vs Osasuna pick: Under 2.5 goals
In their last six matches, Mallorca conceded only two goals, with five of those games ending with under 2.5 goals. Osasuna, meanwhile, let in two goals in their last three games. Therefore, a bet on under 2.5 goals seems like the most plausible prediction for this match.

Mallorca team news
Following a scoreless game with Almeria, Mallorca’s head coach Javier Aguirre commented on the team’s inefficiency. He remarked, “We had ample opportunities to score. In the second half, we had two very clear chances, but not capitalizing on them stings a bit. It comes down to the zones. The final detail lets us down. If we hadn’t had these opportunities, I’d be more concerned. However, we did create enough scoring chances. One day, we will break through upfront.”
Martin Valjent and Vedat Muriqi are sidelined with injuries and won’t participate in the forthcoming tie, whereas Antonio Latorre’s participation is uncertain.
