Real Madrid is hosting RCD Mallorca at Santiago Bernabeu in round 6 of the Spanish LaLiga. Real Madrid keeps finding a way to win games, and their confidence is now really high. Mallorca has lost only 1 game in LaLiga so far this season, and they have looked really well at the start of this season.

Real Madrid has scored an impressive 15 goals in LaLiga so far, the most of all teams, but they have also conceded quite a few goals, 7 in 5 games. Benzema has been the best player for Real Madrid so far this season, and he has scored 6 goals and 5 assists in only 5 games. Vinicius Junior has added 5 goals. The injury list is still quite long for Real Madrid, but they seem to manage really well. In their latest game in LaLiga, Real Madrid was playing against Valencia on the road, and they were the dominant team with 61% of ball possession, 10 shots on goal, 5 corner kicks, 1 big chance created, and 88% of the correct passes. After conceding in the 66^th minute, Real Madrid has shown a lot of character after that, and they were able to score 2 goals in 3 minutes. Real Madrid has deservedly won this game 1-2. Real Madrid is still undefeated so far this season, in LaLiga and the Champions League, and honestly, they are looking great.

Mallorca hasn’t scored a lot so far this season, only 3 goals, but they have also conceded only 3 goals, and they are now in 10^th place with 8 points. After they won 2 of their first 3 games of the season, Mallorca hasn’t won any of their last 2 games, and they haven’t scored a single goal during that streak. Mallorca was playing against Villarreal at home in their last game, and they were the weaker team with 34% of ball possession, 1 shot on goal, 3 corner kicks, 0 big chances created, and 71% of the correct passes. Mallorca didn’t produce much in the attacking end in this game, but their defense was solid once again, and the final score was 0-0. Nino, Rodriguez, and Olivan have each scored 1 goal for Mallorca so far this season. Raillo, Rodriguez, Russo, Ruiz, and Sedlar are all injured for Mallorca. Judging by the start of the season, Mallorca will easily secure their LaLiga status, but a lot can change, but we will see if Mallorca is good enough to keep playing this well.

When playing at home, Real hasn’t lost to Mallorca in their last 5 games, and they are a much better team here. Real also hasn’t lost any of their last 14 home games, and they are still undefeated this season. I know Mallorca is defending well, but they are not good enough to stop Real is such good form.
