Real Betis will welcome Mallorca to Estadio Benito Villamarín in LaLiga on Monday. Both teams have two wins and eight points in the league thus far, with Los Piratas playing six games, one more than Betis.
Betis made it two wins on the spin on Wednesday as Giovani Lo Celso's second-half brace helped them register a 2-1 home win over Getafe. They were winless in their first two league games of the season and have resumed their league campaign after the international break with back-to-back wins.
The visitors suffered a 2-1 home loss to Villarreal last week and bounced back with a 1-0 home triumph over Real Sociedad on Tuesday. Abdón Prats scored the match's only goal from the penalty spot in the 36th minute.

Real Betis vs Mallorca Prediction
Los Verdiblancos have won their two games after the international break, scoring two goals apiece and will look to continue their form here. They have won three of their four games in all competitions this term.
Marc Bartra, Isco Alarcón, and William Carvalho are confirmed absentees for Manuel Pellegrini. Marc Roca, Natan, Vitor Roque, and Diego Llorente are expected to be rested here while Johnny Cardoso is a doubt.
Los Piratas have seen under 2.5 goals in five of their six league games this season, keeping three clean sheets while failing to score in two games. They are winless in their last 10 meetings against Betis, suffering eight losses, which is a cause for concern.
Vedat Muriqi picked up a muscle injury last week and is sidelined for at least three weeks. Takuma Asano is a doubt while Pablo Maffeo should return to the fold after missing out due to an injury last week.
Considering the upturn in form for Betis and their dominance in this fixture, we back the hosts to eke out a narrow win.
