The La Liga match between Real Madrid and Mallorca will take place at Santiago Bernabeu on Wednesday at 11:45 pm IST.
Real Madrid aims to start 2024 on a winning note as they host Mallorca at the Santiago Bernabeu in Wednesday’s La Liga match. While Los Blancos share the top spot with unexpected contender Girona, Mallorca begins the new year positioned 14th in the league standings.
Despite injuries, Real Madrid aims for their 36th La Liga title with a strong record of 14 wins, three draws, and one loss in 18 matches. Carlo Ancelotti’s success, including a flawless Champions League group stage, earned him a contract extension until June 2026, dismissing Brazil manager rumors. In their 2023 finale against Alaves, Madrid displayed resilience, winning despite a red card to Nacho. This victory marked their 17-game unbeaten streak, with the team leading La Liga in clean sheets. As they commence 2024 at the Santiago Bernabeu, where they’ve won 10 out of 11 matches this season, confidence remains high for Los Blancos.
Mallorca aims to continue their momentum from 2023, concluding the year with a six-game unbeaten streak (W3, D3). Under Javier Aguirre, they secured key draws and notable wins, including a 3-2 victory over Osasuna. This resurgence places Mallorca five points clear of relegation concerns, enhancing their chances for a fourth consecutive top-flight season. While they cherish a past 1-0 home victory against Real Madrid, Mallorca faces challenges, having lost their last seven away encounters with Los Blancos since 2009. Nonetheless, they remain optimistic heading into Wednesday’s matchup at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Real Madrid probable starting lineup: Lunin, Carvajal, Rudiger, Tchouameni, Garcia, Kroos, Valverde, Modric, Bellingham, Diaz, Rodrygo
Mallorca possible starting lineup: Rajkovic, Gonzalez, Nastasic, Raillo, Maffeo, S. Costa, Mascarell, Lato, Sanchez, Rodriguez, Larin
