Granada to face sixteenth Mallorca on Saturday at Estadi de Son Moix, with Aitor Karanka’s team currently occupying eighteenth place in the League.

Mallorca go into this match with 32 points secured

Mallorca will be full of confidence, going into this fixture on that back of two successive wins against Barcelona and Alaves. They will need this if they are to retain their run.

Also, league success is all about winning football matches, any way you can, so 13 losses in 17 matches would not make this a successful season for Mallorca. With a sixteenth position in the league and 8 wins, 18 losses and 8 draws, they currently have 32 points in the League having won eight matches, drawn eight games, and lost 18 matches.

Mallorca have won six games, drawn six fixtures, and lost five matches of their 17 League matches at home this season.

Mallorca will have secured 35 points so far this season, should they secure a win.

Injury and illness have depleted Javier Aguirre’s Mallorca and they will likely be missing three key personnel for Saturday’s match.

Nervous Granada take relegation battle to Estadi de Son Moix to face Mallorca

Granada have suffered at the hands of Celta Vigo and Atletico Madrid in their previous two matches, with two successive draws. They go into this game with the hope of taking all three points.

Also, with relegation a real prospect for Granada, Aitor Karanka must stop the poor run of form that has produced nine losses in 14 games. With 31 points (6W, 15L and 13D), they are established in eighteenth position in the League having won six fixtures, drawn 13 meetings, and lost 15 matches.

With a poor record on the road, which amounts to two wins, seven draws, and eight defeats, it is hard to predict a positive outcome for Granada as they travel once more.

A win in this fixture would take Granada’s points to 34 in the League.

Aitor Karanka will be forced to make changes to the plans for his squad, as injury or illness has depleted him of three of his Granada players.
