Barcelona is having a very bad season and they are looking to recover little by little, and in order to do so they will have to beat Mallorca, which is fighting to remain in the first division of soccer in Spain. Here you will find all the information about this game, such as the preview, storylines, predictions, odds and how to watch this 2021-2022 La Liga game live in the US.
Barcelona are having a really bad 2021/2022 season: firstly, they finished third in the UEFA Champions League group stage, which means they will have to play the Europa League after 18 years. In second place, with 28 points in 18 games played, if La Liga ended today, they would not even qualify for the next UEL. The “Culés” then seek to obtain victory in order to aspire to qualify for international tournaments.
On the side of Mallorca, their goal this season is to remain in the first division of soccer in Spain. They currently have 20 points in 18 matches played, which gives them a small margin compared to the last team that would be entering the relegation zone to the second division (Getafe with 15 points). Likewise, they should not rely on that margin and try to get all possible points.
