Mallorca vs FC Barcelona Preview
Mallorca
After a run of three matches without a win, two losses and a draw, Mallorca have responded with back-to-back wins in La Liga and go into the clash against the league leaders full of confidence and in a rich vein of form.
However, of concern for the hosts will be their poor home form this season, where they have won just three times, drawn three times, and lost twice. Additionally, having scored just 15 goals, their potency in the final third will be under the microscope against a Barcelona side that is likely to dominate the ball and dictate the tempo.

The manager’s use of a narrow 4-2-3-1 formation has allowed Mallorca to be compact and the number and quality of chances they conceded. Against Barcelona, their shape will be pivotal in keeping the Blaugrana attack in check and fashioning chances on the counter, with the pace of Darder Navarro, Rodriguez, and Larin in attack.
Barcelona
With 11 wins, a solitary draw, and three losses, Barcelona have had a brilliant start to the season. They have collected 34 points and are leading the La Liga table, a point ahead of second-placed Real Madrid.
However, recent form has seen them tumble, losing twice and drawing once in La Liga. A loss away to Real Sociedad (1-0), a draw at home to Celta Vigo (2-2), and a loss at home to Las Palmas (1-2) have seen Barcelona’s once formidable position at the top of the table loosen, with Los Blancos inching closer to their rivals.

Match analysis on 20Bet shows that the underlying challenges in this run of three matches have been the concessions and failure to keep a clean sheet.
A midfield of Gavi, Pedri, and Lopez has also been exposed as light and lacking in ballast when it comes to aggressive sides. This challenge has been exposed by the absence of Andreas Christensen, who has also operated in midfield to add physicality and aggression.
Hansi Flick hopes to find a solution to this vulnerability ahead of the trip to Mallorca.
Mallorca vs FC Barcelona Prediction
- Pick: Barcelona to Win
- Odds: -162 (20Bet)
- Score prediction: Mallorca 1-3 Barcelona
Barcelona team news shows that the missing players include Ansu Fati, Andreas Christensen, Marc-Andre ter Stegen, and Marc Bernal. However, their major players this season, including Gavi, Pedri, Lopez, Lewandowski, and Lamine Yamal, are available for selection, which is a boost for Hansi Flick.
Mallorca are also close to full strength; the only sidelined players are Samui Costa and Manu Morlanes, which means they will have access to their strong side ahead of hosting Barcelona.

However, in terms of form, the two sides are on opposite trajectories; while Barcelona are winless in the last three (two losses and a draw), Mallorca have won their last two.
However, a head-to-head comparison on 20Bet shows that Barcelona have the quality and experience to turn around their form and get a win at Mallorca.
Mallorca vs FC Barcelona Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Winning Margin: FC Barcelona By 2
- Odds: +370 (20Bet)
Barcelona have been in brilliant goalscoring form this season; they have amassed 43 goals in 15 appearances, conceding just 11. Their form in front of goal means that they are odds on to be on the scoresheet. Mallorca, who have scored a modest 15 goals in 15 appearances this season are not favored to outscore Barcelona in this match.
Team performance analysis shows that Barcelona can be backed to outscore Mallorca by two goals on Tuesday.
