LiontipsMallorca vs Real Madrid. Prediction and Betting Tips for La Liga
Command Analysis
Mallorca managed to strengthen their squad during the transfer window. At least they can hope that Sevilla defender Augustinsson and Villarreal midfielder Manu Morlanes will help the islanders to keep a top half spot in the La Liga standings.
Recent results were worrying for the Barralet - they lost three of four latest matches and didn't score a single goal. However, after a defeat in Copa del Rey, where hosts got eliminated by Real Sociedad (0:1), Javier Aguirre's men can concentrate solely on La Liga.
After 19 La Liga games, Pirates have seven victories and four draws, delivering 25 points and a 10th position in the standings. Team has a terrible offensive record, just 15 goals. In a pre-match interview, Mallorca's captain Antonio Raillo criticized Real's forward Vinicius Junior, accusing him of disrespectful behavior towards fellow professionals. It might give extra motivation to the visitors.
Copete is suspended for the next match, he reached the yellow cards limit.
Vinicius Junior scored one of team's goals in the match against Valencia (2:0). Madrid team scored two goals in two minutes with Karim Benzema giving assists for both strikes. That victory didn't affect team's position in the standings, the Whites are still five points behind Barcelona.
Carlo Ancelotti worries about the number of injuried players, but despite that, Real have an impressive streak - they scored on 11 consecutive away matches. Visitors currently have 14 victories and three draws, delivering 45 points and a 2nd position in the standings. Team has a great offensive record with 40 goals. Galacticos scored more goals on away than at Santiago Bernabeu.
Militao, Mendy, Lucas and probably Benzema will miss the upcoming game.
