Mallorca is gearing up for a crucial match against Almería as they aim to secure their spot in the top division for next season. With the pressure mounting, key player Raíllo is expected to play despite some minor fitness concerns. The team will be without Van der Heyden due to injury but may see Nastasic return. The focus for Mallorca is clear – a win is vital to avoid a tense final match against Getafe.
On the other hand, Almería faces this match with less at stake, as they are already relegated. Coach Pepe Mel has hinted at making several changes and giving opportunities to players looking to prove themselves. The team will be without Lopy, who picked up an injury in their last training session. Mallorca’s Muriqi and Almería’s Leo Baptistao will be players to watch, both looking to improve their goal tallies in what has been a challenging season for both.
In a high-pressure game, both teams will battle it out, but it’s Mallorca who desperately need the points for survival. The prediction is for a close contest, with Mallorca edging Almería 2-1 in their favor. With Mallorca’s home advantage and determination to secure safety, expect a hard-fought match where every goal will matter.
