Team News

Mallorca
Real Sociedad
  • Cyle Larin returns from suspension and will be available to start up front for Javier Aguirre this weekend.
  • Abdon Prats was brought off the bench for a defender in the 46th minute in their victory over Rayo. Perhaps in a more attacking side this weekend he starts but Aguirre seems to prefer defensive stability.
  • Samu Costa also came off the bench but should start this weekend as all of Mallorca's key midfielders will likely be on the pitch this weekend.
  • Aihen Munoz is out for the season with a cruciate ligament injury.
  • Andre Silva should start up front after his competent performance in the Champions League this week, despite Sociedad losing 2-0 to PSG.
  • Mikel Merino looks to be back in the side for good, in aims to inject some solidarity into Imanol Alguacil's midfield.

Prediction

  • Mallorca welcome Real Sociedad to the Balearic Islands to face a home side brimming with confidence ever since their late winning goal against Rayo Vallecano last week. Sociedad aren't short of confidence either, performing well away from home for most of the game at the Parc de Princes in a 2-0 loss.
  • In the league however, Sociedad have been dire recently, without a goal in their last five matches. They could move in to sixth with a victory over Mallorca. The hosts could go nine points clear of the drop zone with a win, having been teetering on the brinks only two weeks ago.
  • The reverse fixture ended 0-0, with little to separate the two sides. This one is likely to go the same route with both teams having high stakes in this one.
