Real Madrid are second in La Liga but five points behind leaders Barcelona. They can't afford a slip-up when travelling to tenth placed Mallorca if they want to win the title. Real are the top away goal scorers in La Liga this season with 22 in their ten games, with only nine goals conceded. They have only lost one of their last six league games but a recent home draw with Real Sociedad has hit their title hopes. It's not all about scoring goals though and they have kept a clean sheet in four of their last five league games, including the last three and four of the last six on the road in La Liga. 

Mallorca are only six points behind the Europa Conference League qualifying positions. However, they are the same number of points above the relegation zone and if they continue their current form, that number may soon diminish. Mallorca come into this fixture having lost three of their last four games. Even worse, they failed to score in each of those defeats. Their home league games have not exactly been seeing the goals flow. Seven of them have seen only 13 goals scored with Mallorca only getting on the scoresheet seven times. Only one of their home league games has seen over 2.5 goals scored in them and six of the last seven at home have ended with a 1-0 scoreline with the last three being won. This won't be easy for Real and Atletico Madrid did recently lose to them, even Barcelona only beat Mallorca 1-0. Go for under 2.5 goals in this match.
