Guide to this Saturday's Barça-Mallorca match: schedule, where to watch it and lineups

BarcelonaBarça and Mallorca will face off this Saturday (4:15 PM) at the Camp Nou stadium in a match corresponding to Matchday 23 of La Liga. The Catalan side is looking to maintain its lead in the league and its good run of results, while the Balearic Islanders want to distance themselves from the relegation zone and perhaps even dream of playing in Europe next season. Barça comes into this match after eliminating Albacete last Tuesday in the quarterfinals of the Copa del Rey in a game that almost went to extra time (1-2). Meanwhile, Mallorca is coming off a resounding 4-1 victory against Sevilla at Son Moix, a result that puts Jagoba Arrasate's team in a comfortable position in the standings. Barça leads the league with 55 points, while Mallorca has 24. Barça's record stands at eighteen wins, one draw, and three losses. Mallorca have six wins, six draws, and ten losses. Barça will still be without Andreas Christensen, Pablo Gavi, and Pedri, who have been injured for several days. Raphinha will also not get any playing time, as he continues to suffer from muscle problems and will rest with the Copa del Rey in mind. Mallorca will be without Takuma Asano and Marash Kumbulla and have doubts about their captain, Antonio Raíllo.
