Real Madrid sit third with six points after wins over Osasuna and Real Oviedo, featuring goals from Kylian Mbappe and a late Vinicius Junior strike. Mallorca occupy 16th with one point following a 3-0 loss at Barcelona and a 1-1 draw with Celta Vigo. Real Madrid hold a strong historical record against Mallorca, having won 46 of 75 meetings and completed a league double last season; Mallorca have not won at the Bernabeu since May 2009. Real Madrid remain without Jude Bellingham, Endrick, Ferland Mendy and Eduardo Camavinga, with Vinicius potentially starting.
Los Blancos have already dispatched Osasuna and Real Oviedo, collecting six points from six to sit third in the table, while Mallorca find themselves down in 16th place with just a single point from their opening two fixtures. Madrid have not always been free-flowing in these early weeks, edging past Osasuna in their opener thanks to a Kylian Mbappe strike, before eventually finding their rhythm in a 3-0 win away at Real Oviedo. Mbappe netted twice that night.
Mallorca's campaign began in the worst possible fashion, a 3-0 defeat at Barcelona in which two players were sent off before half-time. They steadied themselves last weekend, salvaging a 1-1 draw at home to Celta Vigo thanks to Mateu Morey's late equaliser. Jagoba Arrasate's side sit just outside the relegation zone, but victory in Madrid would provide a huge lift before the international break. The Pirates finished 10th last season, only four points off Europe, and they have the tools to aim higher again.
