I wonder about the mind/minds

I should say Chance favors those with a prepared mind or Chance favors only favor people with prepared minds, perhaps minds is plural in Spanish an singular in English and this is reasoning? Can anyone confirm this reasoning or I am completely confuse?

Edited: Gooling I found people with heads are smarter, so here they use the plural. So why mind and not minds.

"Chance favors those with a prepared mind" is grammatically correct and sounds just fine, it's just not as pithy as the original. You could also say "Chance favors prepared minds".
