Mallorca will host Real Valladolid at the Estadi de Son Moix on Saturday (January 7) in La Liga.
The hosts are playing well after a sluggish start and are now pushing for the top half of the standings. Mallorca lost 2-0 to Getafe in their last league game but bounced back to win 2-0 in extra time over Pontevedra in the Copa del Rey on Wednesday (January 4).
Mallorca sit mid-table in 11th place with 19 points from 15 games in the La Liga standings.
Valladolid, meanwhile, have had their struggles this season but remain hopeful of retaining their top-flight status. They lost 2-0 to defending champions Real Madrid in their last game, conceding twice in the final ten minutes before getting knocked out of the Copa del Rey with a 1-0 defeat to Deportivo Alaves.
