Mallorca vs Barcelona Predictions

[wptb id="395917" not found ]

Barcelona’s Quest for Dominance

On a relentless hunt for victory, Barcelona are gearing up for their seventh consecutive win in all competitions as they look to extend their winning streak against Mallorca in the upcoming La Liga clash. The Catalan giants are enjoying an impeccable start to the season, amassing 16 points from their first six games, positioning them confidently atop the La Liga table. Their form contrasts sharply with that of Mallorca, who currently sit in the 15th position with a mere five points to their name.

However, Barcelona’s journey wasn’t always smooth sailing. Their uninspired goalless standoff against Getafe on the season’s commencement had many questioning their potential. But with successive triumphs against the likes of Cadiz, Villarreal, Osasuna, Real Betis, and Celta, in addition to a commanding 5-0 decimation of Royal Antwerp in the Champions League, Xavi’s squad has silenced the doubters.

Mallorca’s Bumpy Road

Mallorca’s introduction to the season has been rocky. Commencing their campaign with a 1-1 deadlock against Las Palmas, they then suffered back-to-back defeats against Villarreal and Granada.

Their fortunes seemed to turn post the international break with a hard-fought 1-0 win against Celta Vigo. However, Mallorca’s recent clash against Girona exposed their vulnerabilities, especially in the defence. Despite Vedat Muriqi’s early strike giving them the lead, Mallorca capitulated, conceding five consecutive goals.

Key Players and Tactical Insights

Heading into the showdown, Mallorca will be without influential figures Omar Mascarell and Antonio Raillo. However, their top performer, Abdón Prats, who recently netted a brace against Girona, is expected to play a pivotal role.

Barcelona, on the other hand, will be missing the dynamic Frenkie de Jong due to an ankle injury, with Pedri also sidelined. This could pave the way for young Gavi to make a statement in the midfield alongside seasoned professionals Oriol Romeu and Ilkay Gundogan.

2. Correct Score Prediction: Given Barcelona’s scoring average and Mallorca’s defensive lapses, a 3-1 victory in favour of Barcelona is plausible.
3. Goalscorer Prediction: Robert Lewandowski, with five goals already this season, is the prime candidate expected to add to his tally.
4. Corner Prediction: Barcelona, having averaged six corners a game, are likely to win the corner count against Mallorca, who average four.
