CD Leganes might have had the worst possible start to the season. They began with the hat-trick of defeat. Neither their home opener nor the away opener could provide them any single point. The Cucumber Growers finished on the 13th position last season. But it looks like that if they continue such kind of form they may have to face the relegation after the end of the campaign. However, now they are all set to play their sixth home game of the season. In a match week 10 fixture, they will welcome Real Mallorca at the Municipal de Butarque Stadium.
On the other hand, Real Mallorca is all set to play it’s 4th road match of the season. Although their away campaign started with a defeat against Valencia CF at the Mestalla, they are keen to turn it around. Nevertheless, they will have this trip to the Municipal de Butarque following their back to back home matches. Before taking on Los Pepineros, they will play Espanyol as well as Real Madrid respectively.

Predicted Result: CD Leganes 2 – 1 Real Mallorca
Match Preview: The start hasn’t been well for any of these sides. They both had a shaky start to the campaign. Thus it is going to be the clash between underdogs. So both the sides need the points badly and they should go for all the match points.
Out of the last 5 meetings between the two sides, both the sides have managed to win two games with the other being ended as a draw. However, the Vermilions should be happy to remember that they won the very last meeting between the two teams. Conversely, Leganes won the last match played at this venue between the sides and will like to recall the memory. In addition to this, in the last 5 head to heads both the sides managed to score 5 goals as well.
Nevertheless, my pick for this game a 2-1 victory for the hosts.
