GIRONA, Spain (Interstat) — Girona hosts Mallorca on Friday, May 1, in a La Liga matchup that a simulator projects as a 1-1 draw. The game at Estadi Montilivi pits two sides with contrasting recent form against each other, with the home team seeking to rebound from a narrow defeat and the visitors aiming to build on a resilient draw.

Mallorca enters the match after a 1-1 tie at Valencia on April 21. The result extended an uneven stretch for the Balearic Islands club, which has posted wins over Rayo Vallecano 3-0 on April 12 and Real Madrid 2-1 on April 4. However, Mallorca has struggled for consistency, with losses to Elche (2-1 on March 21) and Celta Vigo (2-0 on Feb. 22) mixed in. The team also recorded a 2-2 draw at Osasuna on March 7 and a 4-1 win at Sevilla on Feb. 2.

Girona comes off a 3-2 home loss to Real Betis on April 21. That snapped a strong run that included a 1-1 draw at Real Madrid on April 10 and a 1-0 win at Villarreal on April 6. The Catalans have shown resilience throughout the season, beating Barcelona 2-1 on Feb. 16 and Athletic Bilbao 3-0 on March 14. But they have also dropped points, playing to a 1-1 draw at Levante on March 7 and a 2-2 tie at Alaves on Feb. 23.

The most recent head-to-head meeting went Girona’s way, a 2-1 victory at Mallorca on Jan. 4. That result gave Girona momentum in a series that dates back several seasons.

The Interstat game simulator projects a 1-1 draw, reflecting the tight nature of recent contests. Both teams will aim to improve their league standings with the season entering its final weeks. Mallorca’s next game is at home against Villarreal on May 10, while Girona travels to Rayo Vallecano on May 11.
