Why you should back Mallorca
The Pirates' defense has been solid at home lately, allowing fewer than two goals in each of the last five matches on their own pitch. That streak has a strong chance of being extended as Cadiz is 19th in La Liga in scoring with 26 goals - one more than last-place Elche. Mallorca have yielded more than one goal in only two of their 16 home games, conceding twice in each of those contests.
Vedat Muriqi is the top scorer on the Pirates with 13 goals, which ties him for fifth in the league. The 39-year-old striker, who converted in Mallorca's 2-1 triumph over Cadiz last season, ended his four-game drought by netting the team's lone goal in the loss to Girona on May 4. Midfielder Lee Kang-in is second on the Pirates with six goals - half of which have come over his last four matches. See who to back here.
Why you should back Cadiz
The Yellow Submarine have converted in back-to-back contests after going three consecutive matches without a goal. They are looking to get on the board in three straight games for the first time since Jan. 28-Feb. 10, a stretch that began with a 2-0 home triumph against Mallorca. Winger Theo Bongonda opened the scoring for Cadiz in the 10th minute of that match while midfielder Alex Fernandez added breathing room in the 38th on a penalty.
A total of 13 players have converted for the Yellow Submarine this season, with Fernandez sharing the team lead with three goals. Forward Sergi Guardiola and midfielders Ruben Alcaraz and Gonzalo Escalante also have tallied three times, while Bongonda and forward Ruben Sobrino have recorded two goals apiece. Honduran forward Anthony Lozano, who converted seven times in 31 games last season, netted his first goal of 2022-23 in Cadiz's loss to Atletico Madrid on May 3. See who to back here.
