Mallorca vs Getafe

Match preview

Mallorca were beaten 2-1 by Real Madrid on Wednesday. They scored their only shot of the first half in the 11^(th) minute and should be credited for holding out until the 95th minute, when Jacobo Ramon netted Real's winner after Kylian Mbappé equalised after the hour mark.

Supporters will be concerned by the fact that the club has only scored three goals in their last five matches and failed to score on three occasions.

Jagoba Arrasate's team are currently one point behind eighth-placed Rayo Vallecano, whom they will play in their final match of the season on 24 May. However, Arrasate will need to hope that Osasuna, who are in ninth place, drop points, given that they currently have 48 points.

Los Piratas have won only one of their last five games, losing three times, and have won just four of their last 19 in all competitions, suffering 10 defeats.

By contrast, the hosts have enjoyed somewhat more success at the Estadi Mallorca Son Moix, achieving victory three times in their six most recent outings at the stadium while losing just once.

Getafe created few chances against Athletic Bilbao in the final third, producing less than 0.5 xG, registering just one shot on target, and achieving only 11 touches inside their penalty area.

Head coach José Bordalás's team are five points ahead of 18^(th)-placed Leganés, who occupy the third of three relegation spots. They will be safe if they win on Sunday or if Leganés fail to beat Las Palmas on the same day.

The visitors were beaten 1–0 by Mallorca when the teams met in La Liga on 21 December, and they have not won against their hosts in four matches, losing three of those games.

The Azulones' form is alarming, with the club on a losing streak spanning six matches. During this period, they have conceded 11 goals and failed to score in their last five matches.

Getafe have also lost their last three away games without scoring, though they won eight of their previous 10.
