Latest Mallorca vs Barcelona football review
Mallorca won 13, drew nine and lost 16 of their 38 La Liga games last season, picking up 48 points and finishing 10th, just four points behind eighth-placed Rayo Vallecano – who qualified for Europe.
Entering their fifth consecutive season in La Liga, “Los Piratas” are aiming to compete for European football, especially after the addition of promising young midfielder Pablo Torre from Barcelona. They also recruited goalkeeper Lucas Bergstrom and striker Mateo Joseph, while saying goodbye to Jose Copete, Siebe Van der Heyden and Robert Navarro.
Mallorca have a busy schedule of six friendlies, winning three, including their last two against Poblense and Hamburger SV. However, they have a poor record against Barcelona, losing 14 of their last 15 La Liga encounters; their last win against them was in 2009.
Barcelona won this tie 5-1 last season and will be keen to start the 2025-26 campaign with a win, especially with their big rivals Real Madrid only playing next Tuesday. Not being involved in the 2025 Club World Cup has given them a break before winning all four friendlies, including a 5-0 win over Como in the Joan Gamper Cup.
This summer, Barca added Joan Garcia, Marcus Rashford and Roony Bardghji. Last season, Hansi Flick and his team won the double La Liga - King's Cup, and the Spanish Super Cup, scoring more than 100 goals in the domestic league. Lamine Yamal, at the age of 18, continues to be a great hope in attack.
