Atletico Madrid vs Mallorca Match Preview

Atletico Madrid had an amazing performance at Camp Nou, actually, they managed to become the second team this season to leave Barcelona's home undefeated. After this outcome, they expanded their undefeated streak to 11 games (6-5-0) and kept the 3rd spot in the standings, having 5 points distance from the 5th placed Villarreal.

Koke and S. Savic served their suspensions and return to action, on the other hand, central defender Hermoso will miss tonight's game as he got injured against Barcelona.

Mallorca showed great mental strength and prevailed 5-1 over Celta, a team that is also struggling to stay in the league. Mallorca prevailed since the first half of the game (3-0) and in the second half, they simply sealed the three points. Now Mallorca is 5 points below the relegation line and they need to fight till the end.

Suspended M. Valjent and A. Budimir will miss tonight's match. Unavailable is also injured L. Agbenyenu.

Atletico are the big favorites here, with the odds at home to win being as expected, quite poor. Mallorca will fight to get something positive here, but I think they will eventually leave Madrid empty-handed. Atletico usually takes advantage of the second half, actually, 5 out of 10 (50%) La Liga wins this year at Wanda Metropolitano, came in the second half of the match. I will take the risk here, my call is HT / FT X-1.
