Mallorca faces Alaves at Estadi Mallorca Son Moix in their La Liga Round 7 game of the 2025/26 season. Under coach Jagoba Arrasate, Mallorca is eager for their first win to climb out of the relegation zone. Alaves, coached by Eduardo Coudet, have steady form and aim to remain in the top 10. With home advantage and Vedat Muriqi’s strong form, Mallorca is expected to win, but Alaves may challenge with solid defensive play.
Mallorca vs Alaves
Currently 19th in La Liga with 2 points from 6 matches, Mallorca has yet to win, drawing twice and losing four times, scoring 5 goals and conceding 12. They lost to Barcelona (0-3), drew with Celta Vigo (1-1), lost to Real Madrid (1-2), Espanyol (2-3), drew with Atletico Madrid (1-1), and lost to Real Sociedad (0-1). In their last 5 matches, Mallorca drew 2, lost 3, scored 5 and conceded 10 goals. Arrasate’s defensive approach has been ineffective, but their home ground Son Moix, where they won 3 of 5 matches last season, is a key advantage for seeking their first victory.
Mallorca’s squad includes Vedat Muriqi, Sergi Darder, and Pablo Torre. The absence of Marash Kumbulla and fitness doubts over Omar Mascarell pose challenges, but Muriqi, with 4 goals in 5 games, is a vital attacking threat. Aiming to escape danger, Mallorca will play offensively to make the most of their home advantage.
Alaves, 10th with 8 points from 6 matches, have 2 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses, scoring 6 and conceding 5 goals. They beat Levante (2-1) and Athletic Bilbao (1-0), drew with Atletico Madrid (1-1) and Getafe (1-1), and lost to Real Betis (0-1) and Sevilla (1-2). In their last 5 matches, Alaves recorded 2 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss, scoring 5 and conceding 4 goals. Coudet’s counter-attacking style, aided by Carlos Vicente and Lucas Boyé, offers stability. However, Alaves have never won away at Mallorca in 20 La Liga meetings, which is a major challenge.
Alaves’ key players include Carlos Vicente, Carles Alena, and Lucas Boyé, with no major injuries. In the last 5 head-to-head matches, Mallorca has 1 win, 3 draws, and 1 loss against Alaves, with the latest game in March 2025 ending 1-1. Given current form (both teams scored 5 goals in last 5 games), the match is expected to be evenly matched, but Mallorca could use home advantage to secure a narrow win.
Mallorca: Marash Kumbulla is injured. Omar Mascarell’s participation is doubtful. Key players include Vedat Muriqi, Sergi Darder, and Pablo Torre.
Alaves: No significant injuries. Important players are Carlos Vicente, Carles Alena, and Lucas Boyé.
Mallorca (4-4-2): Roman; Morey, Valjent, Raillo, Mojica; Costa, Morlanes, Asano, Darder; Torre, Muriqi.
