LaLiga 2022-23: Mallorca vs Real Madrid: Predicted lineup, injury news, head-to-head, telecast
After a midweek win over Valencia, Los Blanocs will be back in action as they visit Los Piratas on Sunday at lunchtime
Only two victories in their previous five games have put Mallorca in tenth place in the league; they will next play Real Madrid. Los Bermellones are working to clinch a berth in Europe; they are six points behind the fifth place and might take it if they continue this season's record.
Real Madrid, who had lost their previous two games, finally found their groove after sailing to a 2-0 victory over Valencia, moving them five points behind leader Barcelona. In order to successfully defend their championship, the Los Angeles Blancos must continue their winning form.

Players to watch
Mallorca
Dani Rodriguez
Rodriguez will pose a threat to Real Madrid; despite scoring very occasionally in recent games for Mallorca, he has demonstrated exceptional goal-scoring skills.
Real Madrid
Vinicius Jr.
Despite Karim Benzema's injuries, Vinicius has been a star to watch this season. The Brazilian has assisted Real Madrid in scoring goals and even provided goals himself. Real Madrid are able to exploit spaces thanks to his speed and assurance in beating defenders; if you allow him space on the left flank, he will undoubtedly punish you.

Prediction
Real Madrid would like to capitalise on their 2-0 victory and attempt to get closer to Barcelona. Mallorca, who has appeared to be a weak team, would find it difficult to defeat Los Blancos, and we believe Real will win this match with aplomb.
