The 2022-23 edition of La Liga is back in action with another round of matches this week as Espanyol lock horns with Mallorca in an important clash at the Iberostar Stadium on Friday.

Mallorca vs Espanyol Preview

Mallorca are currently in 12th place in the La Liga standings and have punched above their weight so far this season. The hosts edged Valencia to an important 2-1 victory in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this week.

Espanyol, on the other hand, are in 14th place in the league table at the moment and have been plagued by inconsistency so far this season. The Catalan outfit were held to a disappointing 2-2 draw by Elche in their previous game and will need to take it up a notch in this fixture.
