Real Madrid take on Mallorca this weekend

The 2024-25 edition of La Liga is back in action with another set of matches this weekend as Mallorca take on Carlo Ancelotti's Real Madrid side in an important encounter at the Estadi Mallorca Son Moix on Sunday. Real Madrid are the better team on paper and hold the upper hand going into this game.


Mallorca vs Real Madrid Preview

Mallorca finished in 15th place in the La Liga standings and have not been at their best so far this year. The home side slumped to a defeat on penalties against Bologna last week and will need to bounce back in this fixture.

Real Madrid, on the other hand, won the league title last season and have been exceptional under Carlo Ancelotti. Los Blancos eased past Atalanta by a 2-0 scoreline in the UEFA Super Cup in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this weekend.


Mallorca vs Real Madrid Head-to-Head and Key Numbers

  • Real Madrid have a good recent record against Mallorca and have won 25 out of the last 42 matches played between the two teams, as opposed to Mallorca's 12 victories.

Mallorca vs Real Madrid Prediction

Real Madrid have been brilliant under Carlo Ancelotti and will need to work hard to defend their league crown. Kylian Mbappe is set to make his La Liga debut and will look to score his first goal for Los Blancos this weekend.

Mallorca can pack a punch on their day and have been in poor form over the past year. Real Madrid are the better team and should be able to win this game.
