Latest Real Sociedad vs Mallorca team information
Real Sociedad will be without Arsen Zakharyan and Jon Pacheco due to injury. In addition, pillars such as Igor Zubeldia, Alvaro Odriozola, Sheraldo Becker, Nayef Aguerd and Brais Mendez are also having physical problems and are uncertain to play.
If Zubeldia and Aguerd are both absent, 18-year-old centre-back Jon Martin is likely to be given a chance to start. In midfield, coach Alguacil could make a change, with Luka Sucic being the obvious name to partner Martin Zubimendi. Meanwhile, captain Mikel Oyarzabal will certainly still be present in attack.
Mallorca's personnel situation is also not very optimistic. Players such as Takuma Asano, Manu Morlanes, Vedat Muriqi and Robert Navarro are all doubtful. This could force Dani Rodriguez to move higher up the pitch to support striker Abdon Prats.
In midfield, the trio of Morlanes – Samu Costa – Sergi Darder will likely be trusted. Antonio Sanchez and Johan Mojica are also two other options that can be considered if coach Arrasate wants to refresh the squad for this away trip.

Latest Real Sociedad vs Mallorca football review
Real Sociedad are having a challenging season in La Liga, but the Basque side still have a chance to finish the campaign on a positive note. As the season enters its final stages, a European place next season is still within their grasp.
Coach Imanol Alguacil and his team returned to the race with two consecutive victories against Real Valladolid and Las Palmas, thereby rising to 8th place on the rankings, 7 points behind Villarreal (5th) and Real Betis (6th). With the upcoming encounter with Villarreal on April 20, if they win two more victories in the coming time, La Real will be in a very favorable position to compete for a European Cup spot - which has been the goal since the beginning of the season.
At home this season, Real Sociedad have collected 23 points after 15 matches, a relatively stable performance. However, their opponent Mallorca is also no pushover on the away field, when they have won 17 points after 14 away matches, including 5 wins.
La Real have won two of their last three La Liga meetings with Mallorca, including a 1-0 home win last season. However, they were the ones to lose 1-0 in the reverse fixture this season.
Mallorca are currently 10th with 40 points after 30 games (W11, D7, L12), just 1 point behind Real Sociedad. However, coach Jagoba Arrasate's team is in poor form, having lost consecutively to Valencia and Celta Vigo. Away from home, Mallorca have not known victory since before the winter break in December.
In all competitions, they have lost five and drawn two of their last seven away games, suggesting this trip to Anoeta will be a big test. Last season, Mallorca finished 15th, so competing for a top 10 finish this season would be a huge and commendable step forward.
