Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Mallorca and Las Palmas face each other at Visit Mallorca Estadi in what is expected to be one of the most exciting games of Sunday’s program. Despite failing to win the previous two league games, Mallorca are still regarded as one of the main favourites to secure automatic promotion to La Liga, but they can’t afford any complacency in the remainder of the season.
Los Bermellones have turned their Visit Mallorca Estadi into a real fortress, and you should bear in mind that they are eyeing their seventh home win of the season. Las Palmas did well to beat Espanyol at home at the weekend, but they have yet to record a win on the road this season. Since Cufre and Raillo return from suspension for the promotion-chasing side, we believe that punters can find value in betting on the home team.
Highlighted Player (Aleksandar Trajkovski):
Aleksandar Trajkovski is a Macedonian international who played for Cementarnica 55 during his youth career. He made 11 league appearances for the club at senior level as well and in 2010 he moved to Croatian team Inter Zapresic.
The attacking midfielder failed to prove his worth in the 2010/2011 season and, as a result, he was sold to Zulte Waregem in the summer of 2011. He played an important role in the Belgian team from 2011 to 2015 as he scored 11 goals in 83 league appearances for the club. It has to be noted, though, that Trajkovski spend the 2013/2014 season on loan at Mechelen.
