Before they head off for the Club World Cup, Real Madrid will be in LaLiga Santander action this weekend as they visit Real Mallorca on Sunday.
It’s a big game for Carlo Ancelotti‘s side as they look to keep the pressure on Barcelona, but it won’t be easy as Real Mallorca are strong defensively.
There is a five-point gap to the Catalan side at the top of the standings right now, but that can – at least temporarily – be cut to two if Real Madrid win in this early kick off.
Mallorca vs Real Madrid predicted line-ups
It’ll also be difficult for Real Madrid since they’re without Karim Benzema, Eden Hazard, Eder Militao, Lucas Vazquez and Ferland Mendy, all of whom are injured. That means Rodrygo should lead the line as the No.9.
Mallorca, meanwhile, have no injuries, although they are without the suspended Jose Manuel Copete for this one.
Mallorca’s predicted predicted line-up (5-3-2): Predrag Rajkovic; Pablo Maffeo, Martin Valjent, Antonio Raillo, Matija Nastasic, Jaume Costa; Dani Rodriguez, Iddrisu Baba, Inigo Ruiz de Galarreta, Kang-in Lee; Vedat Muriqi.
Real Madrid’s predicted line-up (4-3-3): Thibaut Courtois; Daniel Carvajal, Antonio Rudiger, Nacho, Eduardo Camavinga; Luka Modric, Aurelien Tchouameni, Dani Ceballos; Fede Valverde, Rodrygo, Vinicius.
Mallorca vs Real Madrid: When does it start?
This is an early kick off, something Carlo Ancelotti actually complained about in his pre-match press conference, since Los Blancos played on Thursday night.
So, it’ll start at 14:00 CET, the local time in Spain, which is 13:00 GMT in the UK or 08:00 ET in the USA.
Mallorca vs Real Madrid: Where to watch it?
All eyes will be on this Mallorca vs Real Madrid game, which is being broadcast on ESPN+ in the USA and on LaLigaTV in the UK. We’ll also have a Mallorca vs Real Madrid live blog on MARCA In English.
