Matchday 23 of the La Liga clash between Barcelona and Mallorca will take place on 7 February at Camp Nou. Barcelona vs Mallorca: prediction, betting odds and statistics.
Barcelona
In the title race, the team still cannot afford any slip-ups. Last round, Barcelona dealt confidently with Elche (3:1), earning their 11th win in the last 12 La Liga matches. The only points dropped in that spell came away to Real Sociedad (1:2), and since that game the home side have won two consecutive La Liga matches. It is worth noting that, over the course of the season, the club are still posting a perfect record in home league fixtures – the winning run stands at 10 matches, and in each of them the team have scored at least two goals. Overall, across 22 league rounds, Barcelona have struck 60 goals in total – comfortably the most in the division.
- Barcelona have scored in 42 consecutive La Liga matches.
- The club’s all-or-nothing run in this competition has reached 19 matches (16 wins, 3 defeats).
- At least two goals have been scored in 27 straight Barcelona league matches.
Potential Barcelona Lineup (4-2-3-1)*
Joan Garcia – Jules Kounde, Pau Cubarsi, Eric Garcia, Alejandro Balde – Frenkie de Jong, Fermin Lopez – Dani Olmo, Lamine Yamal, Raphinha – Ferran Torres.
Defender Andreas Christensen, as well as midfielders Pedri and Gavi, are unavailable due to injury. The participation of forward Raphinha is in doubt.
Mallorca
Last Monday, the club produced a rather unexpected thrashing of Sevilla (4:1). Mallorca have now won two of their last three La Liga matches, although before that run the team had managed just one win in their previous seven league games. Thanks to the three points collected at the start of the week, the visitors quickly moved out of the relegation zone and climbed to 14th in the standings. Notably, in this league season, away matches have proven far more difficult for the club than home fixtures. On their own ground, Mallorca have amassed 19 points in total, while away from home they have collected only five. Only Elche have been worse on the road (four points).
- The team have conceded in seven consecutive La Liga matches.
- Mallorca’s all-or-nothing run in this competition has continued for five matches (2 wins, 3 defeats).
- The last five Mallorca La Liga matches have gone over the total.
Potential Mallorca Lineup (4-2-3-1)*
Leo Roman – Pablo Maffeo, Martin Valjent, David Lopez, Johan Mojica – Samu Costa, Omar Mascarell – Sergi Darder, Takuma Asano, Jan Virgili – Vedat Muriqi.
The participation of defender Marash Kumbulla and forward Takuma Asano is in doubt.

Barcelona vs Mallorca: Match Prediction
For several months now, Barcelona have barely put a foot wrong in the La Liga. Across the last 12 rounds, the team have recorded 11 wins. Moreover, regardless of the opponent, the home team have generally come through without any real drama – in every successful match in that spell, the club won by a comfortable margin of at least two goals. At home, Barcelona have been faultless over the distance, and in eight of the last 10 league games the team have also won by more than one goal.
Mallorca have stayed outside the relegation zone thanks to two wins in their last three rounds, but even in that spell the club were beaten without a chance away to Atletico Madrid (0:3) between two home fixtures. The visiting side are generally among the weakest La Liga teams when it comes to performances away from home, collecting only five points from their last 11 matches on the road. Most often, Mallorca have lost by the narrowest of margins, but now they face one of the toughest trips of the season – it will be difficult to put up a fight at Camp Nou.
Prediction: Barcelona (-1.5)
