Real Madrid’s pursuit of LaLiga glory continues as they welcome Mallorca to the Santiago Bernabeu on Wednesday, 14 May, at 20:30. Sitting second in the table with 75 points, Los Blancos are determined to maintain pressure on the league leaders. Meanwhile, ninth-placed Mallorca, on 47 points, will aim to upset the odds and secure a rare result against their illustrious opponents.
Historically, this fixture has been heavily tilted in Real Madrid’s favour, with 28 wins from their last 48 meetings against Mallorca. The visitors’ last victory at the Bernabeu dates back to 2009, highlighting the scale of their challenge. Real Madrid’s home form this season has been formidable, with 14 wins, one draw, and just two losses, underlining their dominance on home turf. In contrast, Mallorca’s away struggles are evident, having failed to score in eight matches this campaign. The psychological advantage is firmly with the hosts, who boast a remarkable 95% win rate when leading 1-0 at home.
Key players are likely to determine the outcome of this clash. Kylian Mbappe, Real Madrid’s top scorer with 24 goals, remains the spearhead of their attack, while Jude Bellingham’s creativity has been instrumental, leading the team in assists. For Mallorca, Vedat Muriqi, with seven goals, represents their main attacking threat, but he will need significant support from Dani Rodriguez to trouble Real Madrid’s resolute defence. Discipline could also be a decisive factor, with Mallorca leading LaLiga in red cards this season.
As Real Madrid chase another crucial three points to keep their title hopes alive, Mallorca face a daunting task to rewrite history. A victory for the hosts would sustain their championship ambitions, while an unlikely win for the visitors could provide a significant boost to their campaign.
