Barcelona will be looking to steady their rocking ship when they head to Mallorca for their next La Liga game. While Barcelona’s title race has shown cracks, Mallorca have risen into European football slots. Read on for our prediction of this match.

Mallorca are coming from an exciting win, rising from 1-0 down at home, to beat Valencia 2-1. Their second straight win sent them to sixth place, just two points off fourth spot. In such form, Mallorca will not be out of place targeting a first win over Barca since 2009.

In recent home games they’ve done well too, bagging 10 of 15 points from the last five matches.

Barcelona have a strong run in this fixture, but they will be meeting a team in good shape, thus, they have to be at their best. Last season’s corresponding match ended in a 2-2 draw but normalcy resumed thereafter.

Heading into this match, Barcelona haven't had things going their way. They have only collected one point from a possible nine in their last three league games.

The visitors can’t afford any more slips especially after Real Madrid closed in on them. Barca were treated to a 2-1 home loss to Las Palmas, leaving them just a point ahead of Real, who have a game in hand.
