Overview

• Real Mallorca visit Real Madrid on Saturday at 21:30 at the Santiago Bernabéu in LaLiga.
• Samu Costa and Johan Mojica return to the squad from injury, Vedat Muriqi and Manu Morlanes are back from suspension, and new signing Jan Virgili is included and could debut.
• Arrasate plans to repeat last season’s competitive blueprint with extra defensive density, considering Marash Kumbulla alongside Martin Valjent and Raíllo to protect the area.
• The coach indicated Samu Costa is unlikely to depart before the window closes, while Maffeo and Cyle Larin remain Mallorca players for now with late moves still uncertain.
• Xabi Alonso’s Madrid have opened with wins over Osasuna and Oviedo, rely heavily on Kylian Mbappé, and could rotate again, while Mallorca have not won a league game at the Bernabéu since 2008–09.
