Due to its participation in the 2025 Spanish Super Cup, Barcelona has brought forward its match from matchday 19 of the 2024-2025 Spanish La Liga and will face Mallorca at the Son Moix stadium on Tuesday .
After a great start to the season in the Spanish league with 11 wins in the first 12 games, Hansi Flick ‘s team entered a worrying streak and only picked up one point from the last nine in play, which allowed Real Madrid and Atlético de Madrid to get closer to the top.
Mallorca, after fighting to stay up last season, now dreams of finishing the campaign with a place in a European competition. Fifth in the standings with 24 points, they come from two consecutive victories against Las Palmas and Valencia and facing the leader is a good test.
Despite the drop in performance, Barcelona continues to be a dangerous team that can come back at any moment. And when it comes to scoring goals, the second halves suit them very well.
Of the last 11 goals between La Liga and the Champions League, seven have been scored after half-time: three against Red Star, one against Celta de Vigo, two against Brest and one against Las Palmas, the only one that was at home.
In this way, Mallorca will have to be careful at Son Moix because the Catalans are dangerous until the end.
Beyond the last defeat against Las Palmas, Barcelona celebrated the return of Yamal. Recovered from an injury to his right ankle that kept him off the pitch for almost a month, he added his first minutes and is ready to resume his good start to the season.
In addition to his five goals in the Spanish tournament, he is the top assister so far (7). At 17 years old, the numbers of the protagonist of this Betway odds reflect that the attacker is not burdened by the responsibility and his teammates need him to reverse this adverse present.
Barcelona’s status as favourites for this match is reinforced by their recent record against Real Mallorca. The Catalan giants are unbeaten in their last 16 matches against Mallorca with 14 wins and two draws. Real Mallorca’s last triumph over Barcelona came all the way back in 2009 so this current group of players are chasing a historic win.
Mallorca: Greif – Bauza, Valjent, Raillo, Mojica – Costa, Morlanes – Navarro, Rodriguez, Darder – Larin.
Barcelona: Pena – Kounde, Cubarsi, Martinez, Balde – Pedri, Gavi, De Jong – Raphinha, Lewandowski, Yamal.
