- Competition: La Liga
- Date: 19th December 2025
- Kick-off: 20:00 UK / 21:00 CET
- Venue: Mestalla
Two teams still glancing nervously over their shoulders meet on Friday night, and the tension is easy to imagine. Valencia sit just above the relegation line on goal difference, while Mallorca hover a little higher in 14th, only two points clear. You might see why the odds lean toward a home win, however Mallorca will not arrive feeling overawed, having lost just once in the last six meetings with Los Che.

La Liga
Valencia and Mallorca have met ten times since 2019, and it has mostly been a tight, slightly scrappy rivalry. Mallorca shade it, just about, with four wins in that stretch and even a couple of clean sheets thrown in. Valencia have taken three of their own, with three others drifting into draws. Goals tend to trickle rather than flow, around 2.2 per game, which kind of fits the feel of these fixtures.
Valencia team overview
Valencia saw a five game unbeaten run come to an end against Atlético Madrid last weekend, which felt harsh given the effort.
Midweek offered a chance to reset, and Corberán’s side took it, beating Sporting Gijón 2-0 in the Copa del Rey with a controlled, mature display.
The concern, though, is Mestalla. Only one home win in the last five suggests this will not be straightforward.
Hugo Duro remains the main attacking reference point with four league goals, while injuries to Arnaut Danjuma, Stole Dimitrievski and Eray Cömert limit Corberán’s options.

Mallorca team overview
Mallorca arrived at Deportivo in midweek riding a quiet four game unbeaten run and probably expected more.
Instead, a late goal knocked them out of the cup, and the frustration lingered. Away from home, the picture is not great either, with no goals scored in the last two trips and just one win in five.
Arrasate is likely to scrap rotation here and go strong again, with Vedat Muriqi leading the line, hoping his presence brings a sharper edge back to the attack.
The Kosovo international will be supported upfront by Mateo Joseph and Jan Virgili, although Takuma Asano is an option.

Prediction
A goalless night at Mestalla would not really surprise anyone. Valencia have struggled to spark anything at home, scraping just one goal from their last three league games here, and Mallorca arrive after two away trips where they didn’t find the net. With both sides nervously checking the table, it has the feel of a game where safety comes first and risks get parked.
Three reasons we expect under 2.5 goals in this game
- Just one of the last five meetings between Valencia and Mallorca produced more than two goals.
- Mallorca have failed to score in three of their last five away encounters.
- Bets on under 2.5 goals won in each of the last four home games of Valencia.
