Pontevedra vs Mallorca Prediction and Betting Tips | January 3rd 2025 

Pontevedra will host Mallorca at the Estadio Municipal de Pasaron on Friday in another round of the 2024-25 Copa del Rey campaign. The home side have performed brilliantly in the Spanish fourth tier this season but will break from that this weekend as they turn their attention to cup action in their opening game of 2025.

They have already exceeded expectations in the Copa del Rey this season, kicking things off with a 4-1 thrashing of Levante. They then locked horns with Villarreal in the next round of the competition and picked up a narrow but thoroughly deserved 1-0 victory over the top-flight outfit, with Dalisson de Almeida coming off the bench to score a brilliant winner three minutes from normal time.

Mallorca, meanwhile, have performed well in La Liga so far and have already won more games in the competition this season than they managed in the entirety of the previous campaign. They beat Getafe 1-0 in their final game of 2024, with Cyle Larin scoring the sole goal of the game from the spot early after the restart.

The visitors advanced to the final of the Copa del Rey last season for the first time since the 2002-03 campaign and will be looking to hit similar heights in the new year.
