The 2023-24 edition of La Liga is back in action with another set of matches this weekend as Mallorca lock horns with Deportivo Alaves in an important encounter at the Iberostar Stadium on Sunday.
Mallorca vs Deportivo Alaves Preview
Mallorca are currently in 17th place in the La Liga standings and have not been at their best so far this season. The hosts played out a 1-1 draw against Cadiz in their previous game and will need to take it up a notch this weekend.
