At Spotify Camp Nou, Barcelona will host RCD Mallorca. They are confidently moving towards the title, having won all their home matches this season, while the visitors are fighting for survival and look very weak away from home.
Barcelona
Barcelona are playing balanced football, with 60 goals scored (the best tally in the league) and only 23 conceded, which is a top 3 figure in the LaLiga EA Sports. The match against Real Sociedad (1:2) was an unexpected setback, but they responded in the next two rounds. They beat Real Oviedo (3:0) and solid mid-table side Elche (3:1). At home, the hosts are completely dominant, with 10 wins from 10 matches and just over three goals scored on average per game. In the reverse fixture earlier this season, they left RCD Mallorca no chance, winning 3:0.
RCD Mallorca
RCD Mallorca are having a difficult season but have shown they can spring a surprise. In the last round, the islanders thrashed Sevilla 4:1, although that was only their second win in their last six matches. However, that result came at home, and their away record is very different. In 11 away league matches, they have only one win and eight defeats. Away from home they have kept a clean sheet just once and have conceded 20 of their 34 goals.
Barcelona vs RCD Mallorca Prediction
Barcelona are in excellent form, with plenty of depth in the squad and strong attacking potential, and they are almost flawless at home. RCD Mallorca produce occasional bright performances, but they do not have a consistent plan to cope with the Catalans. They should win and score at least three goals.
