Real Madrid – Mallorca Preview

Just three days after losing the decisive El Classico against Barcelona, Real Madrid hosts Mallorca at the Santiago Bernabeu in the Spanish capital. Stay with us and these sure soccer predictions. Let’s go!

 

After suffering a 3-4 defeat against Barcelona in the Catalan capital, Real Madrid are now 7 points behind Barca. It means that Barcelona are 99% champions of Spain, and they will be if Real Madrid loses against Mallorca on Wednesday.

 

Kylian Mbappe scored a hat-trick against Barcelona, but somehow these three goals were not enough even for a draw. After this loss, Madrid are now having just theoretical chance to defend their title.

 

Vinicius Jr. had a bad game against Barcelona, so now Ancelotti could replace him in the line-up. The Brazilian star even got injured against Barca. Brahim Diaz is the obvious choice to replace Vini in the starting eleven. Arda Güler could start, too – despite not having the best El Classico against Barcelona.

 

Mallorca are having an okay season in the league. They are in Top 10 of the league, being 9th with 47 points. They can even qualify for Europe, but it depends on their results in the remaining three matches.

 

Last weekend Mallorca achieved another win – 2-1 against Real Valladolid at home. Arrasate’s team conceded the first goal, but Omar Mascarell equalised and Sergi Darder scored the winner.

 

Arrasate could keep the same line-up he used against Valladolid. Vedat Muriqi will lead the attack while Darder, Dani Rodriguez and Asano will support him from behind. This is a good formula for Mallorca – we saw that in the last game.

 

That’s the sure soccer predictions for the La Liga match between Real Madrid and Mallorca at the Santiago Bernabeu. Despite having small chances for the title, Los Blancos have to chase the win here. It’s in their DNA – to try to win every game.
