Real Madrid vs Mallorca Prediction:
The La Liga and European Champions Real Madrid are off to a good start of the season. They have won all their matches so far.
They took the UEFA Super Cup with a 2-0 goals victory over the Europa League champions Frankfurt. Carlo Ancelotti’s men took all 12 points from their four league matches and started the Champions League with a 0-3 goals victory.
However, they are yet to keep a clean sheet in La Liga conceding 4 goals and scoring 11 goals.
Mallorca would find it difficult in the Santiago Bernabeu on Sunday afternoon. They have won only a game out of their four, coming off a 1-1 home draw with Girona.
We predict Real Madrid will get their first clean sheet with a victory.Â
Prediction: Real Madrid 2-0 Mallorca
