Getafe opened their 2019 La Liga campaign with a loss to Atletico Madrid but since then, they have recorded three straight draws against Athletic Bilbao, Alaves and Real Betis, allowing just three goals in their last three matches played.
RCD Mallorca ranks 14th in the Spanish League with their record of 1-1-2 SU. Mallorca has not won since defeating SD Eibar on opening week. They lost to Real Sociedad in Round 2, were beaten by Valencia in Round 3 and were forced to a draw by Athletic Bilbao in their last outing. Mallorca has not scored a goal in their last three contests.
Getafe and RCD Mallorca have played in a total of 26 matches so far. Mallorca leads the series with a total of 11 wins while Getafe has 9 victories and these teams played to a draw in their six other matches. These teams have played to a draw in their last three matches and given how these teams have struggled to score this season, I won’t be surprised if they played to a scoreless or low-scoring draw this time around. I like these two struggling sides to play to a draw here. Prediction: Draw
