Mallorca will be without Muriqi and Morlanes, who are suspended following the defeat to Barcelona. Samu Costa and Ivan Cuellar are doubtful due to injury, but the hosts' squad is generally solid. Mateo Joseph is likely to replace Muriqi in attack, while Toni Lato is also in contention for a starting spot.

Celta are without Carl Starfelt but have no new injuries. Borja Iglesias, who only came on as a substitute against Getafe, could be in line to support Iago Aspas in attack. Bryan Zaragoza is also fighting for a place but is likely to start on the bench.

Latest Mallorca vs Celta Vigo football prediction

Mallorca endured a disastrous first half against Barcelona in their opening game of the season, conceding two goals and having to play with one man down after Manu Morlanes and Vedat Muriqi were sent off.

In all fairness, though, Jagoba Arrasate's side were much better in the second half with just nine men on the pitch, but Barcelona still sealed victory with a late Lamine Yamal strike.

The “red and black half” finished La Liga last season in 10th place and this season they continue to set similar goals, possibly even aiming for a European Cup spot if they maintain stability.

Mallorca signed Pablo Torre, Lucas Bergstrom, Marash Kumbulla and Mateo Joseph in the summer transfer window, and are expected to add more before the window closes. However, Mallorca lost both of their La Liga meetings with Celta last season, including a 2-1 defeat at home to Son Moix.

Celta are leading Mallorca in terms of head-to-head record with 20 wins compared to their opponents' 18, with the remaining 12 draws after 50 encounters in all competitions.

Like Mallorca, “The Sky Blues” also opened the season with a disappointing result when they lost 0-2 to Getafe last Sunday. However, coach Claudio Giraldez’s team will participate in the Europa League this season, thanks to finishing 7th in La Liga last season.

Celta are aiming to repeat the same feat this season, especially after quality signings such as Ilaix Moriba, Ferran Jutgla, Borja Iglesias, Bryan Zaragoza and goalkeeper Ionut Radu.

Last season, Celta won 19 points away from home (from 19 games), while Mallorca earned 27 points at home.
