Real Madrid take on the visitors Mallorca in the round 36 match of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Wednesday, April 14th at Estadio Santiago Bernabéu (Madrid).
Real Madrid remain one of the greatest clubs in the world, and last season they proved it again by winning both La Liga and the Champions League, as well as the Spanish Super Cup. Their elite status seemed further confirmed in 2024 when, now with Mbappé in the squad, they added the UEFA Super Cup and Intercontinental Cup to their collection. But in the second half of the season, the big titles slipped away. In the Champions League, the defending champions were knocked out in the quarter-finals, losing both legs to Arsenal — including a brutal thrashing in London. Domestically, they were also outclassed by Barcelona, losing both the Supercopa and Copa del Rey to their eternal rivals. In La Liga, they entered last weekend’s Clásico trailing the leaders, needing a win — but even after an early two-goal lead, they collapsed and lost again. Carlo Ancelotti was officially replaced by Xabi Alonso shortly after.

Mallorca still have something to fight for. The Bermellones once impressed under Héctor Cúper, but eventually became something of a yo-yo club, moving up and down between divisions — even dropping as far as the third tier. That changed under Javier Aguirre. He not only kept them in La Liga but built a side capable of competing mid-table, even reaching last season’s Copa del Rey final — though they lost that match to Athletic. After Aguirre left to manage the Mexico national team, Jagoba Arrasate took charge. Despite some ups and downs, including a recent loss to Girona, he has his new team fighting for eighth place — enough for a Conference League spot this time. In the previous round, they bounced back with a hard-fought victory over bottom-placed Valladolid. The squad has shown resilience and tactical growth under their new coach.
Arrasate began his Mallorca tenure with a draw against Los Blancos. But Real Madrid got their revenge in January’s Supercopa with a dominant 3-0 win. The Galacticos simply must deliver a strong performance at home. Expect a confident win — back them with a -1.5 goal handicap.
Prediction for the match: Real Madrid to win with -1.5 handicap.
