Mallorca vs Real Madrid head-to-head record

Los Blancos ran riot against Mallorca in the reverse fixture between these sides in La Liga back in August, as Marco Asensio netted a hat-trick in an emphatic 6-1 win at the Bernabeu.

However, Real were defeated on their last trip to Mallorca in October 2019, winning just twice in their previous four visits to face Los Piratas over the last decade.

Mallorca vs Real Madrid score prediction

Real Madrid's experience of the Champions League should ensure there's no emotional hangover when La Liga resumes for Ancelotti's men on Monday evening.

Los Blancos have opened up an eight-point lead at the top of the table after Sevilla's stuttering form, and it will be interesting to see whether Ancelotti deems the environment fitting enough to ring the changes.

Real would certainly benefit from rotation after a gruelling campaign, with Los Blancos likely to prevail with change to spare against Mallorca.

Prediction: Mallorca 0-2 Real Madrid
