RCD Mallorca and Barcelona will face off on January 2, 2022 at 20:00 UTC at the Estadi de Son Moix stadium in Palma, Spain. The match is part of the LaLiga competition. Coronavirus-hit When Barcelona travels to Palma on Sunday night to face Mallorca, they will be hoping to get back on track in La Liga.
The visitors are now in seventh place, two points behind fourth-placed Rayo Vallecano, while Mallorca are in 15th place, five points clear of the relegation zone heading into the next round of games. Mallorca has 20 points after winning four, drawing eight, and losing six of their 18 La Liga matches this season, putting them in 15th place in the table, five points clear of the relegation zone.
The Pirates, who finished second in the Segunda Division last season, are coming off a 4-1 loss to Granada just before the winter break, which was their first loss in any competition since November 22, snapping a five-game winning streak.
Mallorca’s Copa del Rey campaign will resume on January 5 against Eibar, but there is no doubt that the league will take precedence for the club this season, as they aim to win back-to-back seasons at this level for the first time since 2013.
Luis Garcia’s team has drew each of their previous four home league games against Sevilla, Elche, Getafe, and Celta Vigo, and they haven’t lost at home since September. Mallorca, on the other hand, has lost each of their last seven La Liga meetings against Barcelona, including a 4-0 loss in the 2019-20 season’s comparable match.
Barcelona, meanwhile, went into the Spanish winter break with a 1-1 draw against Sevilla, with Ronald Araujo cancelling out an Alejandro Gomez goal in the 32nd minute. The Catalan giants have now won just one of their previous eight league games, and their recent good record has them in seventh place in the table, with 28 points from their first 18 games.
Xavi’s team is not in the title race this season, trailing Real Madrid by 18 points, but they are only two points behind Rayo Vallecano in fourth place and five points behind Real Betis in third place ahead of the January transfer window, with Ferran Torres’ arrival from Manchester City already confirmed.
