Betis vs Mallorca Prediction: Will Home Comforts Prevail?

Welcome to our Betis vs Mallorca prediction, where we break down the key stats, tactics, and betting tips for this intriguing La Liga fixture on November 2, 2025, at Estadio Benito Villamarín. Whether you’re a seasoned punter or just getting started, we’ve got you covered with clear, beginner-friendly insights and a touch of football fan humor. Let’s dive into what makes this matchup worth watching—and maybe worth a cheeky bet.

Match Context: Form, Tactics, and What’s at Stake

Real Betis, or simply Betis if you’re in Seville, are enjoying a solid start to their campaign. Sitting 6th in the La Liga table with 16 points from 10 games, their home form has been a real strength—three wins from five at the Benito Villamarín, though Atlético Madrid did remind them that nobody’s invincible with a recent 2-0 defeat here. Betis have found the net 15 times (that’s 1.5 goals per game), but with 12 goals conceded, there’s a bit of a “you score, we score” vibe about them this season.

Mallorca, meanwhile, are looking over their shoulders in 16th place with just 9 points. Their away record is patchy, but they did surprise Sevilla with a 3-1 win on the road. However, losses to Athletic Club and Real Sociedad, plus a draw at Levante, show this is a team still searching for consistency. Mallorca’s defense can be stubborn, but they struggle to keep up when the tempo rises.

Head to Head and Recent Memories

• Betis have dominated recent head to head meetings, winning four of the last five and five of the last six overall.
• The last time these two met in Seville, Mallorca pulled off a 2-1 upset in September 2024—so Betis know not to take them lightly.
• In their most recent clash in January 2025, Betis got revenge with a 1-0 away win.

Both teams have shown they can surprise the odds: Betis drew at Barcelona as big underdogs, and Mallorca frustrated Atletico Madrid for a 1-1 draw when few expected it.

Squad News and Tactical Setups

Betis boss Manuel Pellegrini has some headaches. Star midfielder Isco is out with a broken leg, while Marc Roca and Giovani Lo Celso are both recovering from leg injuries picked up earlier in the year. That means Betis may rely more on their attacking wide players and a possession-based approach, aiming for around 61% of the ball according to our projections.

Mallorca, with a squad valued at €85.20m (compared to Betis’ impressive €216.00m), will likely set up to frustrate and counter, hoping to nick something from set pieces or a quick break.
