Real Madrid CF vs RCD Mallorca Prediction 14 May 2025
Added on 12 May, 2025
The thirty-sixth round of La Liga continues in Madrid, where Real Madrid will host a determined Mallorca side looking to edge closer to European qualification.
For Real, the recent 3:4 loss to Barcelona all but ended their title hopes, casting a shadow over their narrow wins against Alavés (1:0), Atlético (1:0), Getafe (1:0), and Celta (3:2). Despite that setback, Los Blancos remain securely in second place with 75 points and an impressive goal difference of 72:37.
Mallorca, meanwhile, sit ninth with 47 points and a goal difference of 33:40, just two points shy of the Europa League spots. Their recent form has been a mixed bag — a solid 2:0 win over Real Sociedad, draws with Leganés (0:0), and defeats to top sides Barcelona (0:1) and Girona (0:1), before bouncing back with a 2:1 victory over Valladolid.
While Real Madrid are clearly the stronger side on paper, their recent habit of winning by slim margins could be a window of opportunity for the visitors. Mallorca’s European ambitions mean they’ll be highly motivated, and with little left at stake for Real domestically, a surprise result isn't out of the question. A competitive match is expected, and a narrow scoreline — or even an upset — would not be shocking under the circumstances.
