Mallorca vs Almeria Prediction & Betting Tips | 19/05/2024 | Football

Posted on by Matthew Reynolds

Our prediction for this Primera Division match:

Mallorca

Mallorca

Almeria

Almeria

Following a 1-1 draw with Osasuna, Mallorca will be aiming to return to winning ways in La Liga when they take on Almeria in the penultimate game of the season. Los Bermellones are only four points clear of the relegation zone, but a win over Almeria will see them avoid relegation to Segunda Division. Both Vedat Muriqi and Martin Valjent are back from suspension, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.

The Andalusians, on the other hand, failed to secure the top flight survival and given their difficulties at the back, anything but a routine home win would be a big surprise. As for the visiting team, Largie Ramazani is back from suspension, while Iddrisu Baba is unlikely to be risked. In their last meeting at the venue Mallorca defeated Almeria 1-0, with Pablo Maffeo scoring the only goal of the match.

Highlighted Player (Predrag Rajkovic):

Predrag Rajkovic

Predrag Rajkovic is a professional footballer who plays for Stade Reims and the Serbian National team. Born on the 31st of October, 1995, the Serbian goalkeeper spent his youth career with Hajduk Velijko and Jagodina before signing a professional contract, his first, with the latter in 2012.

His first professional appearance came on the 9th of March, 2013, in a Serbian Superliga match against Partizan. A two-year stint at Red Star Belgrade succeeded Rajkovic’s time at Jagodina, after which he moved to Israel to join Maccabi Tel Aviv in 2015. At Aviv, the six-foot-tall established himself as a first-team regular, and in his four-year spell at the club, he made 192 appearances, kept 90 clean sheets and won the Toto Cup.

The 24-year old now plays in Ligue one with Stade Reims and is on a contract that expires in 2023. At the International level, Rajkovic is a former youth international and has capped at every youth level for Serbia. He made his senior team debut meanwhile on the 14th of August, 2013, in a friendly match against Colombia.

Highlighted Team (Almeria):

Almeria

UD Almeria is a Spanish club based in the autonomous community of Andalusia. Los Rojiblancos are one of the newer additions to the Spanish football system, with the club being founded on July 26, 1989.

Almeria suffered relegation to Segunda Division in the 2014/15 season, and they have been competing in the Spanish second tier ever since. Los Rojiblancos are well known for their white shirts with red stripes, while blue is the dominant colour of their away jersey. Sofiane Feghouli, Felipe Melo, Diego Alves, Veljko Paunovic, Aleix Vidal, Alvaro Negredo, Tomer Hemed, and Mate Bilic are some notable footballers who played for Almeria in the past. Fellow Andalusian clubs Sevilla, Malaga, and Granada are considered the club’s fiercest rivals.

The club’s biggest success in Copa del Rey came in the 2010/11 season when they made it to the semis of the prestigious competition. Nonetheless, Catalan giants Barcelona proved to be a big catch for Almeria in the Spanish Cup semi-finals.
