Each team has listed the starting lineup from their previous match in this tournament.
Mallorca
Jagoba Arrasate's men broke a three-match winless streak in the league, during which they drew once and lost twice without scoring a single goal. They have now started a new, but victorious, streak. First, the club managed to defeat Las Palmas away (3-2), and then the islanders overcame Valencia at home (2-1). The team is currently fighting for a spot in the European competition zone.
- The club has not lost in 7 of their last 10 La Liga matches (6 wins and 1 draw).
- No more than 3 goals have been scored in 15 of Mallorca's last 16 games in La Liga.
- The first half ended in a draw in the team's last six league matches.
Barcelona
The Catalans have been unable to win in three consecutive La Liga matches. After losing away to Real Sociedad (0-1) and drawing with Celta (2-2), they suffered an unexpected home defeat to Las Palmas with a score of 1-2. Barcelona has not experienced three consecutive winless matches in the league since November 2021. Back then, after two consecutive losses, Ronald Koeman was dismissed, and the club drew twice more under interim head coach Sergi Barjuan. Consequently, Hans Flick's side has squandered a 9-point lead over Real Madrid and now even trails them in points lost.
Due to injuries, goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen, defender Andreas Christensen, and midfielder Marc Bernal are currently unavailable.
- At least three goals have been scored in 7 of the Catalans' last 8 La Liga games.
- In the last four away matches in La Liga, Barcelona has scored only once in the first half.
- Both teams have scored in 7 of the club's last 10 away league matches.
Mallorca vs. Barcelona: Match Prediction
Hans Flick's experiments with the lineup have led to a catastrophe. Although the team remains the leader, if Real Madrid wins their rescheduled match, they will top the standings. I am confident that three consecutive winless matches will affect the Catalans' confidence.
Defeating Mallorca this season is not easy, especially on their home turf. The islanders are particularly strong in the second half of matches. In the last 11 home league games, the club has only lost once in the second half (to Atletico), securing 3 wins and drawing 7 times. Meanwhile, Barcelona has failed to win the second half in four consecutive La Liga matches (1 draw and 3 losses). Additionally, in the last five away matches in La Liga, the Catalans have failed to win the second half four times (3 draws and 1 loss).
