REAL MALLORCA VS ATLETICO MADRID PREDICTION
Real Mallorca have had nine days to recooperate from their frustrating loss to Alaves. They remain in the hunt for a top seven spot and will want to send themselves off into the November international break with what would be a famous win. Atletico have struggled on the road this season in La Liga and lost their last away game in the league to Betis. It would represent a good value bet to side with the hosts here, albeit likely to be a low-scoring low margin affair.
