Levante vs Mallorca Prediction

Total Goals (O/U 1.5)

Over 1.5

Despite the prediction for Under 2.5 goals, the vast majority of football matches still feature at least two goals. Both teams have scored and conceded enough to suggest that 2 goals are likely in this fixture.

Total Goals (O/U 3.5)

Under 3.5

Consistent with the 'Under 2.5 Goals' prediction, it is highly unlikely that this match will see 4 or more goals, given both teams' low-scoring tendencies and defensive records.

1st Half Goals (O/U 0.5)

Over 0.5

Although a low-scoring game is predicted overall, a single goal in the first half is quite common in football. Both teams have shown a tendency to score or concede in the first half, particularly towards the end of it.

First Team to Score

Home

Levante has the home advantage and a slightly better attacking record at home than Mallorca does away. They are more likely to break the deadlock.

Goal in Both Halves

Yes

While a low-scoring game, a 2-1 scoreline implies goals in both halves. Both teams have shown a tendency for late goals, suggesting action throughout the match.

Most Likely Score

2-1

Based on Levante's home scoring ability (1.2 avg) and Mallorca's weak away defense (1.9 avg conceded), a 2-1 scoreline for the home side is a plausible outcome, reflecting a narrow victory where both teams find the net.

BTTS 1st Half

No

Given the high stakes and the general low-scoring nature of both teams, a cagey first half is expected, making it unlikely for both teams to score before the break.

xG Based (O/U 2.5)

Under 2.5 xG

Given the low average goals scored by both teams and the expectation of a tight, defensive match, the quality of chances created (Expected Goals) is likely to be low, staying under 2.5 xG.

Double Chance

1X

API-Sports explicitly recommends 'Levante or draw' with a combined 90% probability (45% home win, 45% draw). Given Levante's home advantage and Mallorca's extremely poor away form, a double chance on Levante is a very safe bet.

Draw No Bet

Home

Aligning with the main prediction of a Levante win, the Draw No Bet market removes the risk of a draw, making Levante the favored pick. This is a sensible option given the high draw probability suggested by API-Sports.

HT/FT

Draw/Home

Many home wins in tight matches see a draw at halftime before the home team pushes for a winner in the second half. Given the competitive nature and the importance of the match, a cautious first half is likely.

Total Corners (O/U 9.5)

Over 9.5

In a tight La Liga match with both teams fighting for points, attacking efforts are expected, leading to a reasonable number of corners. While specific corner data is not provided, 9.5 is a standard line often surpassed in competitive matches.

Total Cards (O/U 3.5)

Over 3.5

Both teams have high yellow card counts, and La Liga matches, especially relegation six-pointers, are typically fiercely contested with a high likelihood of cards. The pressure of the situation will contribute to more fouls and disciplinary actions.

Shots on Target (O/U 8.5)

Over 8.5

With both teams needing points, they will likely commit to attacking, leading to a decent number of shots on target. While not a high-scoring game, both sides will test the goalkeepers.

Total Shots (O/U 22.5)

Over 22.5

Both teams will be looking for opportunities to score, leading to a decent volume of shots, even if many are off target. The urgency of the match will drive attacking intent.

Total Fouls (O/U 22.5)

Over 22.5

Relegation battles in La Liga are often physical and intense, leading to a high number of fouls as both teams fight for every ball. This line is frequently surpassed in such fixtures.

Possession Winner

Home

Home teams often enjoy a slight edge in possession, especially when playing against a team with a poor away record. Levante will likely try to control the tempo at home.

Levante Clean Sheet

No

While Mallorca's away scoring is poor, Levante's defense is not impenetrable (1.6 goals conceded per game). Conversely, Mallorca's away defense is weak (1.9 goals conceded per game), making a clean sheet for them highly unlikely. I'll adjust my previous thought to 'No' for home clean sheet, as a 2-1 score implies both teams scoring.

Mallorca Clean Sheet

No

While Mallorca's away scoring is poor, Levante's defense is not impenetrable (1.6 goals conceded per game). Conversely, Mallorca's away defense is weak (1.9 goals conceded per game), making a clean sheet for them highly unlikely. I'll adjust my previous thought to 'No' for home clean sheet, as a 2-1 score implies both teams scoring.
